The Tacarcuna tapaculo (Scytalopus panamensis) is a species of bird in the family Rhinocryptidae. It is found in Panama and Colombia.[2]

This species is at risk of endangerment. One reason being that the protocols to protect these animals does not protect them entirely. The issue of endangerment is mostly due to the fact that the sole protected area only covers forests below 600m and the bird is above on elevation rate.
