Terenura is a genus of insectivorous passerine birds in the antbird family, Thamnophilidae.

The genus was erected by the German ornithologists Jean Cabanis and Ferdinand Heine in 1860 with the streak-capped antwren as the type species.^[1]^[2] The name of the genus comes from the Ancient Greek words terēn for "soft" and oura for "tail".^[3]

The genus contains two species:^[4]

Streak-capped antwren (Terenura maculata)
Orange-bellied antwren (Terenura sicki)

The genus formerly included an additional four species but these were moved to the newly erected genus Euchrepomis based on the results of a genetic study published in 2012.^[5]
