Priorities for Future Research

Introduction

Although there has been some information published on the reproductive biology of the Chestnut-belted Gnateater, there have been no detailed studies. In addition, there is still some confusion with the ranges and taxonomic status of most of the currently defined subspecies. Like nearly all members of the Neotropical avifauna, more studies are needed on the specific diet of this species.
