Naming
The spot-winged antbird was described by the Austrian ornithologist August von Pelzeln in 1868 and given the binomial name ''Percnostola leucostigma''. The Roraiman, Humaita, brownish-headed and rufous-faced antbird were formerly considered as subspecies, but based on the differences in voice and plumage characteristics they are now treated as separate species. As presently defined, the spot-winged antbird includes the subspecies ''infuscata'', ''subplumbea'' and ''intensa''.
Status
The conservation status of the spot-winged antbird has been assessed by BirdLife International to be of Least concern.References:
