DEFINITIONS

MYIOTHLYPIS
(Parulidae; Ϯ Black-crested Warbler M. nigrocristata) Gr. μυια muia, μυιας muias  fly; θλυπις thlupis  unidentified small bird, perhaps some sort of finch or warbler. In ornithology thlypis signifies either a thin-billed tanager or, as in this case, a parulid warbler. "*659. Myiothlypis, Caban. 1850. (Trichas, p. Gr.)   America mer. 2.   1.

Bei G. stragulata [= Myiothlypis rivularis] findet sich zwar schon ein merklich breiter, von der typischen Form abweichender Schnabel, jedoch ist derselbe immer noch nach der Spitze hin seitlich zusammengedrückt und mit stärker gebogener Firste."
