by id from Palmichal area, Carabobo, Venezuela (song)

Subspecies
Genus sometimes merged into Philydor. Plumage, foraging behaviour and voice have suggested to some authors that it may be more closely related to Thripadectes than currently indicated in linear sequences. Forms a superspecies with Lineated Foliage-gleaner (Syndactyla subalaris). Identity of population in Sierra de San Luis (Falc�n) uncertain, presumed to belong with nominate subspecies.

The following 2 subspecies are recognised:

guttulata (Sclater, 1858) - Northern Venezuela, in central Falc�n (Sierra de San Luis) and coastal mountains (Yaracuy, Carabobo east to Distrito Federal, southern Aragua).
pallida Zimmer, JT & Phelps, 1944 - Mountains of north-eastern Venezuela (north-eastern Anzo�tegui, Sucre, northern Monagas).
