These species were formerly placed in the genus Myrmotherula. A molecular genetic study published in 2012 found that Myrmotherula was not monophyletic.[2] As a step in creating monophyletic genera, these two species were moved to the newly erected genus Isleria.[1][3] The name of the genus was chosen to honour the American ornithologists Morton and Phyllis Isler.[2]
