Habitat:
This is a very poorly-known, terrestrial bird of humid forests, found at elevations of 1,050-1,450 m (Ridgely and Gwynne 1989; Wege 1996).
Range:
Odontophorus dialeucos was discovered in 1963, and is only known from Cerros Mali and Tacarcuna on the Tacarcuna ridge in Darién, extreme east Panama and adjacent Chocó, north-west Colombia (Ridgely and Gwynne 1989; Wege 1996).
Conservation:
Conservation Actions Underway
Darién National Park protects the entire range in Panama (Wege 1996). In Colombia, the species occurs in Los Katíos National Park. However, legal protection has not halted habitat loss at lower altitudes (Wege 1996). Conservation Actions Proposed
Conduct a thorough population and distributional survey to assess its status. Study the species's habitat preferences. Monitor the population trend. Assess the extent and rate of encroaching habitat loss. Assess the impact of completion of the Pan-American highway.
Improve active protection of Darién National Park. Protect occupied habitat in Colombia.
