 | | The technique of DNA-DNA hybridization was used to compare the nuclear DNAs of the Brown Treecreeper Climacteris picumnus and the Rufous Treecreeper Climacteris rufa with the DNAs of other passerine taxa. |
 | | We recognize the family Climacteridae, superfamily Menuroidea, parvorder Corvi, suborder Passeres. |
 | | Within the Climacteridae we recognize two genera, Climacteris for the species picumnus, rufa, melanura, erythrops, and affinis, and Cormobates for leucophaea (including minor) and placens. |
