Cymbilaimus is a genus of passerine birds in the antbird family, Thamnophilidae. It contains two species: [2]
The antbirds are a large passerine bird family, Thamnophilidae, found across subtropical and tropical Central and South America, from Mexico to Argentina. There are more than 230 species, known variously as antshrikes, antwrens, antvireos, fire-eyes, bare-eyes and bushbirds. They are related to the antthrushes and antpittas, the tapaculos, the gnateaters and the ovenbirds. Despite some species' common names, this family is not closely related to the wrens, vireos or shrikes.
The barred antshrike is a passerine bird in the antbird family. It is found in the Neotropics from Tamaulipas, Mexico, through Central America, Trinidad and Tobago, and a large part of South America east of the Andes as far south as northern Argentina, Bolivia and Paraguay. There is one accepted record from southern Texas. It is found in a wide range of wooded habitats in both humid and arid regions. Throughout a large part of its range, it is among the most common antbirds.
The great antshrike is a passerine bird in the antbird family, Thamnophilidae. It is the only member of the genus Taraba. It is a resident breeder in the tropical New World in southern Mexico, Central America, Trinidad and South America down to northern Argentina and southeastern Brazil.
The Acre antshrike is a member of the antbird family (Thamnophilidae). Its closest relatives are the streak-backed antshrike and the Amazonian antshrike.
Thamnistes is a genus of antbirds. It includes the following species:
The fasciated antshrike is a species of bird in the antbird family Thamnophilidae. The species is found in Central and Southern America.
The bamboo antshrike is a species of bird in the family Thamnophilidae. It is found in Bolivia, Brazil, and Peru. Its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests.
The undulated antshrike is a relatively large species of antbird from the western Amazon in south-eastern Peru, western Brazil, and possibly far south-eastern Colombia. It formerly included the fulvous antshrike, which is found further west, as a subspecies.
Frederickena is a genus of passerine birds in the antbird family, Thamnophilidae. These are among the largest antbirds, and are native to the Guianas and Amazon Rainforest in South America. They are infrequently seen and generally found at very low densities.
The spot-backed antshrike is a species of bird in the family Thamnophilidae. It is the only member of the genus Hypoedaleus. It is found in southeastern Brazil, eastern Paraguay and far northeastern Argentina. Its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical moist lowland forest.

The silvery-cheeked antshrike is a species of bird in the family Thamnophilidae, the antbirds. It is the only member of the monotypic genus Sakesphoroides. Prior to 2022, it was classified in the genus Sakesphorus, but it was reclassified into its own genus by the International Ornithological Congress based on the results of a 2021 molecular study.
The black-backed antshrike is a species of bird in the family Thamnophilidae. It is found in Colombia and Venezuela, where its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical dry forests.
The band-tailed antshrike is a species of bird in the family Thamnophilidae. It is found in the eastern Guianas of Suriname and French Guiana mostly; also Brazil, Guyana, and Atlantic regions of the Amazon Basin, and some local regions upstream on the Amazon. Its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical swamps.
Thamnomanes is a genus of insectivorous birds in the antbird family, Thamnophilidae. They are restricted to the Neotropics and are important components of forest mixed-species feeding flocks.
The cinereous antshrike is an insectivorous bird in the antbird family Thamnophilidae. The term cinereous describes its colouration. It is found in Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador, French Guiana, Guyana, Peru, Suriname, and Venezuela. Its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests.
Thamnophilus is a genus of antbird in the antbird family, Thamnophilidae. The species in this genus are commonly known as antshrikes. They are insectivores that feed by gleaning prey from foliage and are found in the Neotropics.
