About Campylorhynchus rufinucha (Lesson, 1838)
The Veracruz wren, with the scientific name Campylorhynchus rufinucha (Lesson, 1838), has the following physical description. Adult individuals have a blackish crown, lores, and eyestripe, as well as a white supercilium. Their nape and back are chestnut, and their shoulders have black and white streaks. Their tail is gray-brown with darker bars and a white tip. Their chin and throat are white, their chest is pale buff with brown spots, and their belly is a darker buff, with faint blackish bars on the flanks. Juvenile Veracruz wrens are similar to adults, but their supercilium is buffy white, their back is a duller cinnamon, and their back markings are less distinct. For distribution and habitat, the Veracruz wren is primarily found in central Veracruz state, and occurs only very slightly into north-central Oaxaca. It lives in lowland dry tropical forest, mostly in arid and semi-arid areas. It can also be found in human-modified landscapes and coastal mangroves.
