The foothill antwren or foothill stipplethroat (Epinecrophylla spodionota) is a species of bird in the family Thamnophilidae. It is found in Peru, Ecuador and southwestern Colombia. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests and subtropical or tropical moist montane forests.
The foothill antwren was described by the English ornithologists Philip Sclater and Osbert Salvin in 1880 and given the binomial name Myrmotherula spodionota.[1] It was subsequently placed in the genus Myrmotherula. The present genus Epinecrophylla was erected in 2006.[2]
The foothill antwren has two subspecies:[3]
