Geographic Variation
Two subspecies recognized:
cadwaladeri, described as Nothocercus nigrocapillus cadwaladeri Carriker 1933; type locality Leimebamba, southern Amazonas, Peru at 7,000 feet altitude
Northern Peru in Amazonas; intergrades with nominate nigrocapillus in central Peru (Junín) (Blake 1977).
Differs from nominate nigrocapillus "solely in having the chest rufescent with obsolete black vermiculations, instead of ochraceous gold or buffy brown with heavier black vermiculation" (Blake 1977).

Occurs from central Peru (where integrades with cawaladeri) south to central Bolivia.

Related Species
The monophyly of the genus Nothocercus is well-supported by analyses of both morphological and genetic characters, although the phylogenetic relationship of Nothocercus to other genera of tinamous is not resolved (Bertelli et al 2002, Bertelli and Porzecanski 2004).
Nothocercus julius (Tawny-breasted Tinamou) is the basal member of the genus; Nothocercus nigrocapillus is sister to Nothocercus bonapartei (Highland Tinamou) (Bertelli et al 2002, Bertelli and Porzecanski 2004).
