The spot-winged antshrike (Pygiptila stellaris) is a species of bird in the family Thamnophilidae. It is monotypic within the genus Pygiptila.[2] It is found in Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador, French Guiana, Peru, Suriname, and Venezuela, where its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests.[1]
The spot-winged antshrike was described and illustrated by the German naturalist Johann Baptist von Spix in 1825 and given the binomial name Thamnophilus stellaris.[3] The current genus Pygiptila was erected by the English zoologist Philip Sclater in 1858.[4]
