Southern Wing-banded Antbird © oiseaux.net

Relationships uncertain. Vocalizations and nest architecture suggest that it is not close to Hylophylax or Pithys, and taxonomic position within family requires review. Subspecies stictoptera and some populations of nominate form may prove to be distinct species.

The following 2 subspecies are recognised:

• stictoptera (Salvin, 1893)   -  Eastern and southern Nicaragua (Zelaya Norte, Rivas), eastern Panama (east from Canal region) and extreme north-western Colombia (Chocó, Córdoba). Considered by some authors to be a distinct species, Northern Wing-banded Antbird (Myrmornis stictoptera).
• torquata (Boddaert, 1783)   -  South-central and south-eastern Colombia (eastern base of Andes, in western Caquetá, eastern Cauca, Putumayo; Amazonas), north-eastern Ecuador (Napo, Pastaza), northern Peru north of R Amazon (Loreto), south-eastern Venezuela (eastern and southern Amazonas, Bolí­var), the Guianas, and extreme western, northern and southern Amazonian Brazil (extreme western Amazonas north of R Amazon, northern Roraima east to Amapá and western Maranhío and south to lower R Madeira and middle R Araguaia, and eastern Rondônia east to southern Pará and northern Mato Grosso).
