Sphenopsis is a genus of warbler-like birds in the tanager family Thraupidae. They are found in highland forest of South America.
Taxonomy and species list[edit]
The four species now placed in this genus were formerly assigned to the genus Hemispingus. A molecular phylogenetic study published in 2014 found that Hemispingus was polyphyletic and as part of the subsequent rearrangement, the genus Sphenopsis was resurrected for these four species.[1][2][3] The genus had been introduced in 1862 by the English zoologist Philip Sclater with the type species as Sphenopsis ignobilis, a taxon that is now treated as a subspecies of the oleaginous hemispingus.[3][4] The name Sphenopsis combines the Ancient Greek sphēn meaning "wedge" with opsis meaning "appearance".[5]
The four species in the genus are:[3]
Image | Common Name | Scientific name | Distribution |
---|---|---|---|
Oleaginous hemispingus | Sphenopsis frontalis | Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, and Venezuela. | |
Black-eared hemispingus | Sphenopsis melanotis | Venezuela, through to western Bolivia | |
Piura hemispingus | Sphenopsis piurae | Ecuador and Peru. | |
Western hemispingus | Sphenopsis ochracea | Ecuador and Colombia. |
