Fluvicolinae is a subfamily of passerine birds in the family Tyrannidae, encompassing species widely distributed across the Americas.
Taxonomy
Broad studies in molecular genetics performed by Tello et al. (2009) discovered a large number of new relationships within the family Tyrannidae that were not reflected in the majority of species classified as part of the family.[1] Following these studies, Ohlson et al. (2013) proposed a reorganization and division of the family Tyrannidae, which according to the proposal would divide the family into the subfamilies Fluvicolinae, Hirundineinae Tello, Moyle, Marchese & Cracraft, 2009, Muscigrallinae Ohlson, Irestedt, Ericson & Fjeldså, 2013, Tyranninae Vigors, 1825 and Elaeniinae, Cabanis & Heine, 1859–60.[2]
The cladogram below is based on a large molecular phylogentic study of the suboscines by Michael Harvey and collaborators that was published in 2020.[3] The taxonomy follows that of the list of world birds maintained by Frank Gill, Pamela C. Rasmussen and David Donsker on behalf of the International Ornithological Committee (IOC).[4] The tribes are those proposed by Jan Ohlson and collaborators in 2020 other than the genus Muscigralla that is placed in the tribe Muscigrallini rather than a separate subfamily.[5]

Tribes and genera
Following the reordering proposal, the current subfamily is grouped into the following tribes and genera:[2]
- sedis mutabilis (in other words, with minor uncertainties or inconclusive data).
- Colonia
- Myiophobus (the group pertaining to the species fasciatus, the only member of its genus, considered highly polyphilic).[6]
- Fluvicolini Swainson, 1832–33
- Ochthoeca (along with Tumbezia)
- Silvicultrix
- Myiophobus (the group pertaining to the species roraimae, the only member of its genus, considered highly polyphilic).[6]
- Colorhamphus
- Sublegatus
- Guyramemua
- Pyrocephalus
- Fluvicola
- Arundinicola
- Gubernetes
- Alectrurus
- Muscipipra, provisionally.
- Contopini Fitzpatrick, 2004
- Ochthornis
- Cnemotriccus
- Lathrotriccus
- Aphanotriccus
- Mitrephanes
- Empidonax
- Sayornis
- Contopus
- Xenotriccus, provisionally.
