French: Todirostre de Johannes German: Braunzügel-Todityrann Spanish: Titirijí de Johannes
Other common names: Johannes’s Tody-tyrant

Taxonomy: Euscarthmus iohannis E. Snethlage, 1907, Monte Verde, River Purús, Brazil.
Formerly treated in genus Euscarthmornis and later in Idioptilon, both now defunct. Was considered conspecific with H. striaticollis, but the two occur sympatrically at several localities in Peru and Bolivia. Monotypic.

Distribution: SW Amazonia in E Peru (S to Madre de Dios), W Brazil (E to upper R Solimões, R Juruá and R Purus) and N Bolivia (Pando, Beni); also isolated localities in S Colombia (Putumayo) and E Ecuador (Kapawi), and probably more widespread.
