Drymophila is a bird genus in the antbird family (Thamnophilidae). It is a relative of the typical antwrens.

Species

Range

Six of the Drymophila species are associated with regions of southeastern Brazil; two of these - Bertoni's and Dusky-tailed Antbird - also range into eastern Paraguay and extreme northeastern Argentina.

Even at their highest diversity in Brazil's Mata Atlântica, the species are almost completely parapatric, in some cases like the Dusky-tailed and Scaled Antbird even to exclusive habitat preferences. Of course, the rampant deforestation in that region may obscure that there has been more overlap in the past. In any case, habitat fragments strongly tend to hold at most a single species.[1]

D. devillei, the Striated Antbird, is a species of the southwestern quadrant of the Amazon Basin, and a disjunct population lives in Ecuador, with southern border Colombia. D. caudata, the Long-tailed Antbird, is a species of Andean and Amazonian headwater valleys from western Bolivia to central Venezuela. In Venezuela, the range continues coastal to the western shores of the Orinoco River outlet into the Caribbean Sea.
