The Sepia-brown Wren or Sharpe's Wren (Cinnycerthia olivascens) is a species of bird in the Troglodytidae family. It was formerly considered a subspecies of the Peruvian Wren (C. peruana), but under the common name Sepia-brown Wren. As presently defined, the Sepia-brown Wren is found in dense undergrowth of humid Andean forests in Colombia, Ecuador, and northern Peru.
