The black-tailed treecreeper (Climacteris melanurus) is a species of bird in the family Climacteridae. It is endemic to north and northwestern Australia.
Its natural habitats are temperate forests and subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests. [1]
Both genders are dark brown and black-tailed. The male has a black throat while the female has a white throat. [2]
They participate in cooperative breeding, in which multiple individuals assist in raising young—not just the biological parents. [3] They likely reach sexual maturity around 2 years old. [3]
