About the Lineated Foliage-gleaner
The lineated foliage-gleaner (Syndactyla subalaris) is a species of bird in the Furnariinae subfamily of the ovenbird family Furnariidae. It is found in Colombia, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Panama, Peru, and Venezuela. The lineated foliage-gleaner's taxonomy is unsettled. The International Ornithological Committee and BirdLife International's Handbook of the Birds of the World recognize these six subspecies:
S. s. lineata (Lawrence, 1865) S. s. tacarcunae (Chapman, 1923) S. s. subalaris (Sclater, PL, 1859) S. s. striolata (Todd, 1913) S. s. olivacea Phelps, WH & Phelps, WH Jr, 1956 S. s. mentalis (Taczanowski & Berlepsch, 1885)
The Clements taxonomy does not recognize S. s. olivacea as separate from S. s. striolata. It adds two subspecies that the other systems include within S. s. mentalis: S. s. colligata (Zimmer, 1935) and S. s. ruficrissa (Carriker, 1930). Their apparent differences from mentalis are within its range of variabilty.
The lineated and rufous-necked foliage-gleaner (S. ruficollis) are sister species. This article follows the six-subspecies model. The lineated foliage-gleaner is 17 to 19 cm (6.7 to 7.5 in) long and weighs 26... Wikipedia →
