Description

The wrenthrush or zeledonia (Zeledonia coronata) is a species of nine-primaried oscine which is endemic to Costa Rica and western Panama. The species was first described by Robert Ridgway in 1907. Neither a wren nor a thrush (and unrelated to both), it has a short tail, rounded wings and elongated tarsi. It is the only species in the genus Zeledonia, whose relations have been uncertain, but are now coming into focus. It is sometimes placed in its own family (which is supported by recent genetic data) or (erroneously) with the thrushes. It is currently placed by some authorities in the New World warbler family, an arrangement which has also been shown to be incorrect via recent data. The genus name commemorates José Castulo Zeledón, a Costa Rican ornithologist.

Feeding Habits
Wrenthrush, a bird species, primarily consumes insects, arthropods, and spiders. It exhibits specialized foraging techniques to hunt its prey. Its dietary adaptations are tailored to exploit these food sources effectively.
Habitat
The wrenthrush thrives in montane evergreen and elfin forests of highland regions, often in proximity to streams. It shows a preference for dense vegetation, including bamboo thickets of Swallenochloa and Chusquea species, and is typically found in areas that are frequently enveloped in fog and wet conditions. The wrenthrush favors terrestrial and low understory foraging, remaining concealed within the lush foliage. Its habitat features a thick leaf litter and shrubby understory, with vegetation heights varying from modest herbaceous layers to substantial bamboo stands exceeding three meters.
