DEFINITIONS
LAMPROSPIZA
(Mitrospingidae; Ϯ Red-billed Pied Tanager L. melanoleuca) Gr. λαμπρος lampros brilliant; σπιζα spiza finch < σπιζω spizō to chirp; "Von den Psarinen, als irrthümlich zu denselben gestellt, müssen die folgenden Arten ausgeschlossen werden: 1. Psaris habia Less. Cent. zool. Tab. 59. Tityra habia Gray l. c. No. 12. Dieser mit den grösseren Arten der Psarinen in der Farbüng allerdings sehr übereinstimmende Vogel, gehört nach seinem Baue unverkennbar zur Familie der Fringilliden und zwar in die Nähe von Saltator und Coccoborus. Von beiden genannten Gattungen weicht er indess genügend ab, um unter dem Namen Lamprospiza habia als Typus einer neuen [Gattu]ng betrachtet werden zu können." (Cabanis 1847); "Lamprospiza Cabanis, 1847, Archiv f. Naturg., 13 (1), p. 246. Type, by original designation, Psaris habia Lesson = Saltator melanoleucus Vieillot."
