Short-billed Canastero (Asthenes baeri)
About the Short-billed Canastero
The short-billed canastero (Asthenes baeri) is a species of bird in the Furnariinae subfamily of the ovenbird family Furnariidae. It is found in Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Paraguay, and Uruguay. The short-billed canastero's taxonomy is unsettled. The International Ornithological Committee (IOC) and BirdLife International's Handbook of the Birds of the World (HBW) assign it three subspecies, the nominate A. b. baeri (Berlepsch, 1906), A. b. chacoensis (Brodkorb, 1938), and A. b. neiffi (Contreras, 1980). The Clements taxonomy does not recognize neiffi, assessing it as a clinal variant of chacoensis. This article follows the three-subspecies model.
