Taxonomy edit

The genus Xiphorhynchus was introduced in 1827 by the English naturalist William John Swainson.[1] The name combines the Ancient Greek xiphos meaning "sword" with rhunkhos meaning "bill".[2] Swainson did not specify the type species but this was subsequently designated as the ivory-billed woodcreeper.[3]

The genus contains the following 13 species:[4]
