Dusky-tailed Canastero (Pseudasthenes humicola)
About the Dusky-tailed Canastero
The dusky-tailed canastero (Pseudasthenes humicola) is a species of bird in the Furnariinae subfamily of the ovenbird family Furnariidae. It is endemic to Chile. The dusky-tailed canastero was originally described as Synallaxis humicola and subsequently placed in genera Siptornis, Thripophaga, and Asthenes by various authors and taxonomic systems. Beginning in about 2010 it and three other members of Asthenes were moved to the newly coined genus Pseudasthenes. The dusky-tailed canastero has three subspecies, the nominate P. h. humicola (Kittlitz, 1830), P. h. goodalli (Marin, Kiff & Peña, 1989), and P. h. polysticta (Hellmayr, 1925).

We only publish recordings we may use commercially, because this site is supported by ads. xeno-canto lists 68 recordings for this species: 50 CC BY-NC-SA · 18 CC BY-NC-ND. None of them permits commercial use, so there is no player here — the page is kept as a profile so the bird is not missing from the guide.
As soon as someone uploads a freely licensed recording, we mirror it and the player appears here.
