Subspecies
No subspecies.

Lepidocolaptes squamatus (Sibley and Monroe 1990, 1993) has been split into Scaled Woodcreeper (Lepidocolaptes squamatus) and Scalloped Woodcreeper (Lepidocolaptes falcinellus) following SACC (2005).

Sister-species to Scaled Woodcreeper (Lepidocolaptes squamatus) and previously regarded as conspecific, but three plumage characters (crown pattern, and coloration of back and of tail) and measurements differ significantly between populations on opposite sides of R Para��ba do Sul, in northern S�o Paulo. The depression associated with this river also represents a boundary for several other well-marked taxa.
