Remarks
E. haematonota was renamed Napo Stipple-throated Antwren following splits of subspecies pyrrhonota and amazonica (Whitney et al. 2013e; SACC 589A). Revised treatment (9.2) of pyrrhonota and fjeldsaai as subspecies of E. haematonota allows reversion of English name to Stipple-throated Antwren. Change English name from Stipple-throated Antwren to Rufous-backed Stipplethroat following SACC 696.2.
