- The wallcreeper is the only extant species, but the extinct Tichodroma capeki is known from the Late Miocene of Polgardi, Hungary.
- Initially, Linnaeus placed the wallcreeper in the family Certhiidae, along with the treecreepers, while other authorities have placed it the nuthatch family Sittidae, as its own subfamily.
- A 2016 phylogenetic study of members in the superfamily Certhioidea suggests it is a sister of the Sittidae.
Why it is Common
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Tichodroma article was read about 1,900 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 34 and blocks with 26: each hit it takes is cut by 10 %.
