Rhegmatorhina is a genus of insectivorous passerine birds in the antbird family, Thamnophilidae.

The genus was introduced by the American ornithologist Robert Ridgway in 1888 with the bare-eyed antbird (Rhegmatorhina gymnops) as the type species.[2] The name of the genus combines the Ancient Greek words rhēgma, rhēgmatos for "fissure" or "cleft" and rhis, rhinos for "nostril".[3]

The genus contains the following species:[4]

These species are specialist ant-followers that depend upon swarms of army ants to flush insects and other arthropods out of the leaf litter.[5][6]
