About the Rufous-winged Antshrike

The rufous-winged antshrike (Thamnophilus torquatus) is a species of bird in subfamily Thamnophilinae of family Thamnophilidae, the "typical antbirds". It is found in Bolivia, Brazil, and Paraguay. The rufous-winged antshrike was described by the English naturalist William Swainson in 1825 and given its current binomial name Thamnophilus torquatus. It and the rufous-capped antshrike (T. ruficapillus) are sister species. The South American Classification Committee of the American Ornithological Society is considering a proposal to lump them as a single species. The rufous-winged antshrike is monotypic.
