The Utcubamba tapaculo (Scytalopus intermedius) is a species of bird in the family Rhinocryptidae that the South American Classification Committee of the American Ornithological Society split from blackish tapaculo (S. latrans) in July 2020.[1] It is endemic to Peru.

As of January 2021, the Clements taxonomy considers it to be a subspecies of blackish tapaculo (S. latrans intermedius), but the International Ornithological Congress (IOC) considers it a distinct species.[2][3]
