Rusty-winged Antwren (Herpsilochmus frater)
About the Rusty-winged Antwren
The rusty-winged antwren (Herpsilochmus frater) is a species of bird in subfamily Thamnophilinae of family Thamnophilidae, the "typical antbirds". It is found in Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador, Guyana, Panama, Peru, Suriname, and Venezuela. The rusty-winged antwren's taxonomy is unsettled. Before 2020 the American Ornithological Society, the International Ornithological Committee, and the Clements taxonomy treated it and what is now the rufous-margined antwren (Herpsilochmus rufimarginatus) as a single species, the rufous-winged antwren with the binomial H. rufimarginatus. These systems assigned it four subspecies: H. r. exiguus Nelson, 1912 H. r. frater Sclater, PL & Salvin, 1880 H. r. scapularis (zu Wied-Neuwied, 1831) H. r. rufimarginatus (Temminck, 1822)
