Hylocryptus was a genus of birds in the family Furnariidae. It used to include the Henna-capped foliage-gleaner, Hylocryptus rectirostris, and the Henna-hooded foliage-gleaner, Hylocryptus erythrocephalus. However, a new molecular phylogeny [1] revealed that this genus was a polyphyletic group because H. rectirostris is more closely related to Canebrake groundcreeper, and H. erythrocephalus is more closely related to the Ruddy foliage-gleaner complex, a grouping also suggested by songs and morphology.[2] All these species are now classified under the genus Clibanornis.
