Characters. The only known species of this genus is certainly very nearly allied to 
Chiroxiphia, but has a smaller bill, proportionately longer tail and shorter first primary. 
Adult : the feathers of the forehead are slightly erect; the first primary is narrow, somewhat 
pointed and falls between the sixth and seventh. The third primary is the longest, the second 
and fourth are equal and about 3 mm. shorter. The stems of the outer primaries are stiffer and 
much more thickened than in Chiroxiphia. Tail rounded, the middle pair of rectrices, which is 
much narrowed on the apical half, elongated and pointed, exceeds the following one by 20 to 
25 mm. The adult 9 has the first primary fully as short as the o, but of normal width and
