Hume's treecreeper was earlier included within the brown-throated treecreeper complex and identified as a separate species on the basis of distinctive calls. It is found in Assam, Myanmar, the Shan Mountains, northern Thailand, Laos and the Dalat Plateau. It has a rich cinnamon throat and breast, with molecular evidence and calls supporting its status, and the name commemorates the British naturalist Allan Octavian Hume, who worked in India (Wikipedia, general species account).
The cached account gives no measurements, diet or breeding information. SoIB 2023 lists it as a resident forest bird that eats invertebrates, without a priority category (Wikipedia, general species account; SoIB 2023).
