About the Peruvian Seaside Cinclodes

The Peruvian seaside cinclodes or surf cinclodes (Cinclodes taczanowskii) is a species of bird in the Furnariinae subfamily of the ovenbird family Furnariidae. It is endemic to Peru. The Peruvian seaside cinclodes and the Chilean seaside cinclodes (C. nigrofumosus) 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 Peruvian seaside cinclodes is monotypic.
