Woodcreeper

The wedge-billed woodcreeper is the smallest species in the subfamily (the xenops are smaller, but their exact taxonomic position has not been resolved).
The scimitar-billed woodcreeper is unusual for the subfamily in living in highly arid and open habitats, and in being predominately a ground forager.
The genus Xenops (streaked xenops pictured) presents a problem, with conflicting results over what group it is associated with.

The woodcreepers (Dendrocolaptinae) comprise a subfamily of sub-oscine passerine birds endemic to the Neotropics. They have traditionally been considered a distinct family Dendrocolaptidae, but most authorities now place them as a subfamily of the ovenbirds (Furnariidae). They superficially resemble the Old World treecreepers, but they are unrelated and the similarities are due to convergent evolution. The subfamily contains around 57 species in 15 to 20 genera.
