==Distribution and habitat==
[[File:Cobb's Wren.png|thumb|[[Cobb's wren]] is an insular [[endemism|endemic]], restricted to the [[Falkland Islands]]]] 
Wrens are principally a New World family, distributed from [[Alaska]] and [[Canada]] to southern [[Argentina]], with the greatest [[species richness]] in the [[Neotropics]]. As suggested by its name, the [[Eurasian wren]] is the only species of wren found outside the Americas, as restricted to Europe, Asia, and northern Africa (it was formerly considered [[conspecific]] with the [[winter wren]] and [[Pacific wren]] of North America). The insular species include the [[Clarión wren]] and [[Socorro wren]] from the [[Revillagigedo Islands]] in the Pacific Ocean, and [[Cobb's wren]] in the [[Falkland Islands]], but few [[Caribbean Sea|Caribbean]] islands have a species of wren, with only the [[southern house wren]] in the [[Lesser Antilles]], the [[Cozumel wren]] of [[Cozumel Island]], and the highly restricted [[Zapata wren]] in a single swamp in [[Cuba]].{{citation needed|date = July 2022}}

The various species occur in a wide range of habitats, ranging from dry, sparsely wooded country to rainforests. Most species are mainly found at low levels, but members of the genus ''[[Campylorhynchus]]'' are frequently found higher, and the two members of ''[[Odontorchilus]]'' are restricted to the [[forest canopy]].<ref name="HBW"/> A few species, notably the Eurasian wren and the house wren, are often associated with humans. Most species are resident, remaining in Central and South America all year round, but the few species found in temperate regions of the [[Northern Hemisphere]] are partially migratory, spending the winter further south.{{citation needed|date = July 2022}}
