The genus Aphrastura was introduced in 1899 by the American ornithologist Harry C. Oberholser with the thorn-tailed rayadito as the type species.[1][2] The name genus name combines the Ancient Greek aphrastos meaning "marvellous" with oura meaning "tail".[3]
The genus contains the following species:[4]

- Masafuera rayadito,[6] Aphrastura masafuerae
- Subantarctic rayadito,[7] Aphrastura subantarctica
