Type. 

 Stigmatura, Scl. et Salv. P. Z. S. 1866, p. 188 S. budytoides. 



The much elongated tail at once distinguishes this singular form, 

 which is otherwise not remotely allied to Serphophaga. The bill 

 is small and constricted, the rictal bristles very feeble, and the 

 tarsus long. One of the two known species of Stigmatura is found 

 in Bolivia and Peru, the other in the northern provinces of the 

 Argentine Bepublic.
