About the Ash-winged Antwren

The ash-winged antwren (Euchrepomis spodioptila) is a species of bird in subfamily Euchrepomidinae of family Thamnophilidae, the "typical antbirds". It is found in Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador, French Guiana, Guyana, Suriname, Venezuela, and possibly Peru. The ash-winged antwren was described and illustrated by the English ornithologists Philip Sclater and Osbert Salvin in 1881 and given the binomial name Terenura spodioptila. There it remained until the current genus Euchrepomis was created in 2012 following phylogenetic analysis. The ash-winged antwren has three subspecies, the nominate E. s. spodioptila (Sclater, PL & Salvin, 1881), E. s. signata (Zimmer, JT, 1932), and E. s. meridionalis (Snethlage, E, 1925).
