The Wedge-billed Woodcreeper (Glyphorynchus spirurus), is a passerine bird which breeds in the tropical New World from southern Mexico to northern Bolivia, central Brazil and the Guianas; it is absent from the Pacific coastal areas except between Costa Rica and Ecuador. It is the only member of the genus Glyphorynchus. It is easily distinguished from its relatives by its small size and distinctive bill. The Wedge-billed Woodcreeper is typically 14–15 cm long, and weighs 14–16.5 g. More

the Wedge-billed Woodcreeper is the smallest species in the subfamily The woodcreepers are generally fairly uniform in appearance. They range in size from 13 cm (the Wedge-billed Woodcreeper) to 35 cm in length (the Strong-billed Woodcreeper). Males tend to be slightly larger than females on average, but there is considerable overlap in size in most species. Pronounced sexual dimorphism in size and plumage is rare. Bill size and shape accounts for much of the variation between the species. More

The Wedge-Billed Woodcreeper with its bill formation will be able to find a little more spider and insect prey in its native Mexico, Bolivia, and Brazil. Moist arboreal scrub with insect life will support the Woodcreeper. Woodcreepers take their name from their canopy adventures capturing prey and social behavior. However, Woodcreepers often flock attack ant swarms, the avian bill pecking deep into tree crevices to extract larvae or other insectivore prey. Woodcreepers are protective of trees and old growth for serious reasons. More
