Los trepadores y chicheros son una familia de pájaros Passeriformes endémico dela región Neotropical. Estas aves parduscas rojizas se alimentaban principalmente en insectos cazados en los troncos de los árboles.
Son pájaros de bosque que anidan en agujeros o hendiduras; ponen 2 o 3 huevos blancos, e incuban durante 15 días aproximadamente.
Siguen las colonias de hormigas que salen a forrajear, esperando que los insectos se muevan y los cazan. Se ha calculado que estos pájaros le roban aproximadamente 200 insectos grandes a una colonia de hormigas por día; lo que equivale al 15% de los requisito de comida diarios de una colonia de hormigas legionarias.
