Larger sample sizes are needed to ascertain whether females are significantly smaller than males in wing and tail length. Generic relationships of the many foliage-gleaners comprising the philydorine assemblage have long been disputed. Vaurie (1980) recommended an expanded concept of the genus Philydor that included, among many others, the currently recognised genera Syndactyla and Simoxenops. Although Vaurie's views failed to gain wide acceptance, the generic placement of some foliage-gleaners has shifted between Syndactyla and other genera, suggesting that characters used to separate these genera are not well defined. The taxon Syndactyla mirandae was described from Goias, Brazil, and for a time was treated as a subspecies of S. rufosuperciliata before it was determined to be a synonym of P. dimidiatum (Remsen 2003). More recently, Syndactyla ruflcollis, although divergent in plumage characters from the three recognised species of Syndactyla, was transferred to that genus from. Figure 4.
