Troglodytes

This is a genus for some birds traditionally called wrens. The word troglodyte comes from various Greek and Roman reports of African cave-dwelling hunters.https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Troglodytae&oldid=1183366954 Some of the wrens of this genus (or at least eurasian wrens) occasionally hop into small burrows and caves searching for food or building nests. This notion used to be a more common misconception with the belief that wrens actually lived in caves. In 1902 Oberholser proposed that Anorthura should replace the name Troglodytes. Though troglodytes troglodytes is the type species of the genus (what with having the name double) the genus was originally given to three birds :T.aedon, T. furvus, and T. arundinaceus.https://www.jstor.org/stable/4069309?searchText=%28troglodytes%29&searchUri=%2Faction%2FdoAdvancedSearch%3Fq0%3Dtroglodytes%26f0%3Dall%26c1%3DAND%26f1%3Dall%26acc%3Don&ab_segments=0%2Fbasic_search_gsv2%2Fcontrol&refreqid=fastly-default%3Acb05dccc1c95952ec7fdc4f2d40aa287&seq=2
