Drymophila is a bird genus in the antbird family (Thamnophilidae). It is a relative of the typical antwrens.
The genus Drymophila contains the following nine species:
Formerly, some authorities also considered the following species (or subspecies) as species within the genus Drymophila:
Six of the Drymophila species are associated with regions of southeastern Brazil; two of these - Bertoni's and dusky-tailed antbird - also range into eastern Paraguay and extreme northeastern Argentina.
Even at their highest diversity in Brazil's Mata Atlântica, the species are almost completely parapatric, in some cases like the dusky-tailed and scaled antbird even to exclusive habitat preferences. Of course, the rampant deforestation in that region may obscure that there has been more overlap in the past. In any case, habitat fragments strongly tend to hold at most a single species.
