The chestnut-crested antbird (Rhegmatorhina cristata ) is a species of bird in the family Thamnophilidae. It is found in Brazil and Colombia. Its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests.
This species is a specialist ant-follower that relies on swarms of army ants to flush insects and other arthropods out of the leaf litter.
The chestnut-crested antbird was described by the Austrian ornithologist August von Pelzeln in 1868 and given the binomial name Pithys cristata.
