Indicates that D turdina Plain-winged Woodcreeper (not recognised as a species by AOU) and D anabatina Tawny-winged Woodcreeper are phylogenetically nested within D fuliginosa Plain-brown Woodcreeper (and suggests treatment of D f taunayi as a ssp of D turdina).

The discussions in SACC indicates that D t taunayi might be better treated as another full species (contra the opinion of the paper sited in post #1).
