Cranioleuca marcapatae
- 21.9 × 16 mm (estimated)
- Its colour follows its family (the eggs of all its relatives are alike); we haven't found a description of this species' own egg yet. Speculative: we haven't found documented measurements of this egg yet, so we estimated its size from related birds.
Breeds in Peru
Plain white or with a faint greenish-blue tinge, unmarked, as in ovenbird and woodcreeper eggs (we haven't found a description of this species' own egg yet).
