The Boat-billed Tody-Tyrant moves to the genus Microcochlearius, which is sister to Myiornis. The remainder of Hemitriccus goes back into a restored Idioptilon, which is sister to the Microcochlearius/Myiornis clade. The changes in species names moving to Oncostoma and Idioptilon are due to the fact that both are neuter in gender. There's some guesswork here as to which species go where, so expect further changes once more study is done of these species. Next on the list is Hirundineinae. More
