Marshall (1942) Atlapetes gutturalis Volcan de Santa Ana - (1) In loose, continuous brush cover under widely spaced large trees on SE side Cerro del Aguila (pairs) forage on ground. (2) In continuous brushland on summit of Jeco (above camp) on same ground with Dendrocygna and Volatinia jacarina (but not in lowland weedy brush). Singing. Very local. Common in the brushy area or summit Jeco however - several pairs. Another example of high zone bird common at Los Esesmiles, rare or local on Santa Ana. Melodzone bicruciata Wslope Los Esesmiles Dry brush along trail. Volcan de Santa Ana Coffee finca - only certain spots - where a pair or more close by. Hear same pair every day in same place by scratching of leaves under coffee finca, shade trees. Members of a pair stay close together. As far as I could determine, only in flat areas of finca. Like to forage along agave ledges. Call from coffee bushes when alarmed. Chilata Rather common in dry brush.
