Genus of birds
Cyphorhinus is a genus of birds in the family Troglodytidae. Established by Jean Cabanis in 1844, it contains the following species:[2]
- Song wren (Cyphorhinus phaeocephalus)
- Chestnut-breasted wren (Cyphorhinus thoracicus)
- Musician wren (Cyphorhinus arada)
The name Cyphorhinus is a combination of the Greek words kuphos, meaning "hump" or "hunch" and rhis or rhinos, meaning "nose" (or, in this case, bill). It has been emended from the earlier incarnation Cyphorhina.[3]
