Cichlocolaptes is a genus of passerine birds in the ovenbird family Furnariidae. They are found in Brazil.
Taxonomy[]
The genus Cichlocolaptes was introduced in 1853 by the German naturalist Ludwig Reichenbach.[1] The name combines the Ancient Greek kikhlē meaning "thrush" with kolaptēs meaning "chiseller".[2] The type species was designated by George Robert Gray in 1855 as Anabates ferruginolentus Wied.[3] This taxon is a junior synonym of Anabates leucophrus (pale-browed treehunter) described by William Jardine & Prideaux John Selby in 1830.[4][5]
Species[]
The genus contains two species:[5]
- Pale-browed treehunter (Cichlocolaptes leucophrus)
- Cryptic treehunter (Cichlocolaptes mazarbarnetti)
