Thamnophilidae — Antbirds
Rufous-tailed Antbird, Drymophila genei, is a passerine of the antbird family that breeds in south-east Brazil. It is found in bamboo stands within montane evergreen forest, and also in nearby tangled vegetation and other thick cover. The species is confined to Brazil and has a patchy presence in south-eastern Minas Gerais, southern Espírito Santo, north-eastern São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro. It is closely related to the ochre-rumped antbird and is treated as monotypic. The bird was described by de Filippi in 1847.
