Epinecrophylla
The ''stipplethroats'' are a South and Central American genus of passerine birds in the antbird, antbird family Thamnophilidae. They were previously included in the genus ''Myrmotherula'' as the "stipple-throated group". Characteristics Molecular studies show that the genus ''Myrmotherula'' as then defined was Polyphyly, polyphyletic. The stipple-throated members form a clade that is not a Sister taxon, sister clade to any of the remaining members, and the genus ''Epinecrophylla'' has been erected to accommodate them. The stipple-throated species have a black and white (or buffy-white) stippled throat in one or both of the sexes. They also have a relatively long, plain-coloured tail. The fact that this clade is distinct from the remaining members of the ''Myrmotherula'' is reinforced by differences in song, foraging behaviour and nest-building. Ecology Members of the genus ''Epinecrophylla'' tend to specialise in extracting insects and spiders from dangling clusters of dead leave ...

Ornate Stipplethroat
The ornate stipplethroat (''Epinecrophylla ornata''), formerly called the ornate antwren, is a species of bird in subfamily Thamnophilinae of family Thamnophilidae, the "typical antbirds". It is found in Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador, and Peru. Taxonomy and systematics The ornate stipplethroat was described by the English zoologist Philip Sclater in 1853 and given the binomial name ''Formicivora ornata''. It was subsequently placed in genus ''Myrmotherula''. Based on genetic and vocal studies it and seven other members of that genus were moved to genus ''Epinecrophylla'' created in 2006. All were eventually named "stipplethroats" to highlight a common feature and to set them apart from ''Myrmotherula'' antwrens.Remsen, J. V., Jr., J. I. Areta, E. Bonaccorso, S. Claramunt, G.
