Drymodes is a genus of birds in the family Petroicidae. It was traditionally held to have two species, but molecular and behavioural differences led to the split of the New Guinea populations from the northern scrub robin. The paper by Les Christidis and colleagues was published in 2011 and the IOC adopted the split in 2015:{{cite journal|author=Christidis, L|author2=Irestedt, M|author3=Rowe, D|author4=Boles, W E|author5=Norman, J A|name-list-style=amp|date=2011|title= Mitochondrial and nuclear DNA phylogenies reveal a complex evolutionary history in the Australasian robins (Passeriformes: Petroicidae)|journal=Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution| doi=10.1016/j.ympev.2011.08.014 | url=http://www.nrm.se/download/18.632e8fa71321f81e5f280004641/Christidis+et+al.+MPEV+2011+Petroicidae.pdf|volume=61|issue=3 |pages=726–738|pmid=21867765|bibcode=2011MolPE..61..726C }}
