Description
The large scrubwren (Sericornis nouhuysi) is a bird species. Placed in the family Pardalotidae in the Sibley-Ahlquist taxonomy, this has met with opposition and indeed is now known to be wrong; they rather belong to the independent family Acanthizidae. It is found in New Guinea. Its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical moist montane forests.

Feeding Habits
Large Scrubwren predominantly consumes arthropods and occasionally seeds. Typically foraging in small groups, large Scrubwren pokes about mossy branches and trunks, exhibiting behavior similar to Australasian treecreepers. Preferring lower forest levels, it gleans for food and shows less active feeding compared to similar species.
Habitat
The habitat of large Scrubwren is primarily montane forests and adjacent secondary growth regions. These birds favor environments that are typically rich in lush vegetation and offer ample understory cover. They are also found in lower montane and hill forests, as well as secondary growth areas where they can find the necessary food and shelter resources.
