...although Buarremon was consistently reconstructed as a monophyletic group by our multilocus approach, considerable incongruence was observed across analyses, indicating the difficulty of achieving phylogenetic resolution in this group.
...the uncertainty existing at present leads us to recommend that the traditional genera Buarremon, Arremon and Lysurus be maintained in an expanded genus Arremon as suggested by Cadena et al. (2007), the monophyly of which seems clear.
