To this group belongs the Myothera obsoleta of Prince Charles Bonaparte. No example of that genus, or of Thamnophilus (in their most extended sense), has yet been found north of Cuba: their straight, cylindrical, and abruptly-hooked bills, offer a striking contrast to the lengthened, compressed, curved, and consequently feeble structure of this part in Thriothorus and Troglodytes.
Total length, 5½; bill, 11⁄10; wings, and tail, 26⁄10 tarsi, 7⁄10.
