(Sclater, PL & Salvin, 1860)

The northern schiffornis (Schiffornis veraepacis), is a species of Neotropical bird.

Distribution and habitat[edit]

It is found from southeast Mexico to western Colombia and Venezuela. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests and subtropicalortropical moist montane forests.

Description[edit]

It is medium-sized, about 24 cm (9 in.) long.

Taxonomy[edit]

The northern schiffornis has traditionally been placed in the manakin family, but evidence strongly suggest it is better placed in Tityridae,[2] where now placed by SACC.

The species was split by the AOU in 2013 from the species complex thrush-like schiffornis.[3]
