Described as Crypturus kerriae Chapman 1915; type locality Baudo, Chocó, Colombia.
The species is named after Elizabeth L. Kerr, who collected the type specimen.
Monophyly of the genus Crypturellus is well-supported by analyses of both morphological and genetic characters (Bertelli et al. 2002, Bertelli and Porzecanski 2004). Within Crypturellus, the affinities of kerriae are not yet resolved. Some authors have suggested that kerriae is most closely related to, or even a disjunct subspecies of, Crypturellus boucardi (Slaty-breasted Tinamou) (Blake 1977). Phylogenetic analysis of morphological characters identify kerriae and boucardi as sister taxa (Bertelli et al. 2002), although a preliminary phylogenetic analysis that also incorporated DNA sequence data (from both mitochrondrial and nuclear genes) failed to recover a relationship between the two taxa (Bertelli and Porzecanski 2004).
