Genus: Schistocichla
Description
Taxonomy
Schistocichla would be a genus in the Family Thamnophilidae.
This taxon was previously included in the genus Percnostola but now Clements and H&M have moved all its members to the genus Myrmelastes.
Differenciation of species in this group is based largely on variation in vocalizations (Isler et al. 2007)[1].
