Neophilydor is a genus of foliage-gleaners, birds in the ovenbird family Furnariidae. The two species in the genus are found in parts of Middle and South America.

Taxonomy

The two species now placed in this genus were formerly placed in the genus Philydor . Molecular phylogenetic studies published in 2011 and 2020 found that the genus Philydor was polyphyletic. [1] [2] As part of the reorganization to resolve the polyphyly, a new genus Neophilydor was introduced with Anabates erythrocercus Pelzeln, 1859, as the type species. [3] [4]

The genus contains the following two species: [4]

Ovenbirds or furnariids are a large family of small suboscine passerine birds found from Mexico and Central to southern South America. They form the family Furnariidae. This is a large family containing around 315 species and 70 genera. The ovenbird, which breeds in North America, is not a furnariid – rather it is a distantly related bird of the wood warbler family, Parulidae.

The woodcreepers (Dendrocolaptinae) comprise a subfamily of suboscine passerine birds endemic to the Neotropics. They have traditionally been considered a distinct family Dendrocolaptidae, but most authorities now place them as a subfamily of the ovenbirds (Furnariidae). They superficially resemble the Old World treecreepers, but they are unrelated and the similarities are due to convergent evolution. The subfamily contains 63 species in 16 genera.
