TYPE LOCALITY:
Panama
,
Chiriqui Prov.
, Volcan de
Chiriqui
, Boquete,

Costa Rica
and westernmost
Panama

COMMENTS: Maintained as a species until relegated to synonymy under
O.
albigularis
by
Handley (1966a)
, emulating the treatment of South American
albigularis-like
forms by Cabrera (1961).
Gardner (1983a)
, however, continued to rank
devius
as a species. The status of
devius
must be evaluated within a revisionary context of the entire
albigularis
complex.
