Anabacerthia lichtensteini

  • Speculative: we haven't found a description of this egg (a source we checked reports it as undescribed), so we estimated its colours and markings and its size from related birds.
Breeds in Argentina, Brazil, Paraguay

No documented description found yet; drawn like the Ivory-billed Woodcreeper egg (same family).
