About the Ochre-throated Foliage-gleaner

The ochre-throated foliage-gleaner (Automolus ochrolaemus) is a species of bird in the Furnariinae subfamily of the ovenbird family Furnariidae. It is found in Panama and every mainland South American country except Argentina, Chile, Paraguay, and Uruguay.

The ochre-throated foliage-gleaner's taxonomy is unsettled. Until July 2023 the International Ornithological Committee (IOC) called A. ochrolaemus the buff-throated foliage gleaner and assigned it these six subspecies: A. o. cervinigularis (Sclater, PL, 1857)

A. o. hypophaeus Ridgway, 1909 A. o. pallidigularis Lawrence, 1862 A. o. turdinus (von Pelzeln, 1859) A. o. ochrolaemus (Tschudi, 1844) A. o. auricularis Zimmer, JT, 1935 The Clements taxonomy added a seventh, A. o. amusos (Peters, 1929). BirdLife International's Handbook of the Birds of the World does not recognize A. o. amusos but includes A. o. exsertus as the seventh subspecies. The IOC, Clements, and the American Ornithological Society previously recognized exsertus as a separate species, the Chiriqui foliage-gleaner.

In July 2023 the IOC split A. o. cervinigularis and A. o. hypophaeus from the buff-throated to form the new species fawn-throated... Wikipedia →
