Myrmoderus
''Myrmoderus'' is a genus of passerine birds in the family Thamnophilidae. The genus contains five species: * Ferruginous-backed antbird (''Myrmoderus ferrugineus'') * Cordillera Azul antbird (''Myrmoderus eowilsoni'') * Scalloped antbird (''Myrmoderus ruficauda'') * White-bibbed antbird (''Myrmoderus loricatus'') * Squamate antbird (''Myrmoderus squamosus'') The Cordillera Azul antbird was first described in 2018. The other four species were formerly included in the genus ''Myrmeciza''. A molecular phylogenetic study published in 2013 found that ''Myrmeciza'', as then defined, was polyphyletic. In the resulting rearrangement to create monophyletic genera four species were moved to the resurrected genus ''Myrmoderus''. The genus had originally been erected in 1909 by the American ornithologist Robert Ridgway with the white-bibbed antbird as the type species In zoological nomenclature, a type species (''species typica'') is the species name with which the name of a genus or subg ...

Ferruginous-backed Antbird
The ferruginous-backed antbird (''Myrmoderus ferrugineus'') is a species of passerine bird in the family Thamnophilidae. It inhabits the Guyanas and the northern Amazon Basin. Its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests. The ferruginous-backed antbird was formerly included in the genus '' Myrmeciza''. A molecular phylogenetic study published in 2013 found that ''Myrmeciza'', as then defined, was polyphyletic. In the resulting rearrangement to create monophyletic genera four species including the ferruginous-backed antbird were moved to the resurrected genus ''Myrmoderus''.
