''Syndactyla'' is a genus of foliage-gleaners, birds in the ovenbird family Furnariidae. Taxonomy The genus ''Syndactyla'' was introduced in 1853 by the German naturalist Ludwig Reichenbach to accommodate the buff-browed foliage-gleaner. The name combines the Ancient Greek ''sun'' meaning "together" with ''daktulos'' meaning "toe". Members of this genus are most closely related to the foliage-gleaners in the genus ''Anabacerthia''.

Species The genus contains eight species: * Lineated foliage-gleaner, ''Syndactyla subalaris'' * Guttulate foliage-gleaner, ''Syndactyla guttulata'' * Buff-browed foliage-gleaner, ''Syndactyla rufosuperciliata'' * Rufous-necked foliage-gleaner, ''Syndactyl ...
