Thripadectes
''Thripadectes'' is a genus of Neotropical birds in the ovenbird family (biology), family Furnariidae. Taxonomy The genus was established by Philip Sclater in 1862 with the flammulated treehunter as the type species. The name ''Thripadectes'' is a combination of the Greek language, Greek words or , meaning "woodworm" and , meaning "biter" (from , meaning "to bite").

Streak-breasted Treehunter
The streak-breasted treehunter (''Thripadectes rufobrunneus'') is a passerine bird in the Furnariinae subfamily of the ovenbird family Furnariidae. It is found in Costa Rica and Panama. Taxonomy and systematics The streak-breasted treehunter was formally described in 1865 by the American amateur ornithologist George Newbold Lawrence from a specimen collected by Alexander von Frantzius near San José in Costa Rica. Lawrence coined the binomial name ''Philydor rufobrunneus''. The specific epithet ''rufobrunneus'' is Modern Latin meaning "brown". The streak-breasted treehunter is now placed in the genus ''Thripadectes'' that was introduced in 1862 by Philip Sclater. The streak-breasted treehunter is monotypic: no subspecies are recognised. It and the black-billed treehunter (''T. melanorhynchus'') form a superspecies.Remsen, Jr., J. V. (2020). Streak-breasted Treehunter (''Thripadectes rufobrunneus''), version 1.0.

The striped treehunter (''Thripadectes holostictus'') is a species of bird in the Furnariinae subfamily of the ovenbird family Furnariidae. It is found in Bolivia, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, and Venezuela. Taxonomy and systematics The striped treehunter shares genus ''Thripadectes'' with six other treehunters. It has these three subspecies: *''T. h. holostictus'' ( Sclater, PL & Salvin, 1876) *''T. h. moderatus'' Zimmer, JT, 1935 *''T. h. striatidorsus'' ( Berlepsch & Taczanowski, 1884) However, the subspecies' size and plumage differences may prove to be clinal as more data become available. If true, the division into subspecies might not be warranted.Remsen, Jr., J. V. and G. M. Kirwan (2020). Striped Treehunter (''Thripadectes holostictus''), version 1.0.

Some of them apparently intergrade, and the subspecies in Colombia and Ecuador are "in need of re-evaluation".Remsen, Jr., J. V. and E. de Juana (2020).

Bird Genera
Birds are a group of warm-blooded vertebrates constituting the class Aves (), characterised by feathers, toothless beaked jaws, the laying of hard-shelled eggs, a high metabolic rate, a four-chambered heart, and a strong yet lightweight skeleton. Birds live worldwide and range in size from the bee hummingbird to the ostrich. There are about ten thousand living species, more than half of which are passerine, or "perching" birds. Birds have whose development varies according to species; the only known groups without wings are the extinct moa and elephant birds. Wings, which are modified forelimbs, gave birds the ability to fly, although further evolution has led to the loss of flight in some birds, including ratites, penguins, and diverse endemic island species. The digestive and respiratory systems of birds are also uniquely adapted for flight. Some bird species of aquatic environments, particularly seabirds and some waterbirds, have further evolved for swimming. Bi ...

Greek Language
Greek ( el, label=Modern Greek, Ελληνικά, Elliniká, ; grc, Ἑλληνική, Hellēnikḗ) is an independent branch of the Indo-European family of languages, native to Greece, Cyprus, southern Italy (Calabria and Salento), southern Albania, and other regions of the Balkans, the Black Sea coast, Asia Minor, and the Eastern Mediterranean. It has the longest documented history of any Indo-European language, spanning at least 3,400 years of written records. Its writing system is the Greek alphabet, which has been used for approximately 2,800 years; previously, Greek was recorded in writing systems such as Linear B and the Cypriot syllabary. The alphabet arose from the Phoenician script and was in turn the basis of the Latin, Cyrillic, Armenian, Coptic, Gothic, and many other writing systems. The Greek language holds a very important place in the history of the Western world. Beginning with the epics of Homer, ancient Greek literature includes many works of lasting impo ...

Species
In biology, a species is the basic unit of classification and a taxonomic rank of an organism, as well as a unit of biodiversity. A species is often defined as the largest group of organisms in which any two individuals of the appropriate sexes or mating types can produce fertile offspring, typically by sexual reproduction. Other ways of defining species include their karyotype, DNA sequence, morphology, behaviour or ecological niche. In addition, paleontologists use the concept of the chronospecies since fossil reproduction cannot be examined. The most recent rigorous estimate for the total number of species of eukaryotes is between 8 and 8.7 million. However, only about 14% of these had been described by 2011. All species (except viruses) are given a two-part name, a "binomial". The first part of a binomial is the genus to which the species belongs. The second part is called the specific name or the specific epithet (in botanical nomenclature, also sometimes i ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
