Chilean Seaside Cinclodes (Cinclodes nigrofumosus)
About the Chilean Seaside Cinclodes
The Chilean seaside cinclodes or simply seaside cinclodes (Cinclodes nigrofumosus) is a species of bird in the Furnariinae subfamily of the ovenbird family Furnariidae. It is endemic to Chile. The Chilean seaside cinclodes and the Peruvian seaside cinclodes (C. taczanowskii) have on and off been considered separate species and conspecific. Studies in the twenty-first century show that they are very weakly differentiated genetically. As of 2023 they are treated as sister species, and the two are sister to the dark-bellied cinclodes (C. patagonicus). The South American Classification Committee of the American Ornithological Society is seeking a proposal to consider merging them. The Chilean seaside cinclodes is monotypic.
