Little detailed information. Spix's Spinetail forages among leaves for insects (dos Anjos and Bocon 1999.) Usually forages within 5 m of the ground (Goerck 1999), in the lowest levels of bushes and sometimes hopping on the ground (Sick 1993). Occasionally forages higher; one pair was seen more than 10 m up in a palm tree and another was seen flycatching termites high in a tree (Belton 1984).
