Odontorchilus is a small genus ofSouth Americanbirds in the familyTroglodytidae. These small greywrens are relatively long-tailed (giving them a superficiallygnatcatcher-like appearance), and, uniquely in the family, they live in thecanopy and subcanopy of humid forest, with one species associated with forest growing on the eastAndean slope and the other with theAmazon rainforest.
