Hemitriccus rufigularis
(Cabanis, 1873)

Cory & Hellmayr (1927: 317)

Type
series
:
Cabanis (1873a: 67)
based this species on an unspecified number of specimens, but mentioned that he had both a male and a female at his disposal.
Taczanowski (1875: 534)
specified that Jelski sent only a single specimen of each sex. These two specimens are thus
syntypes
of this species. Both were deposited in the MIZ (see
Taczanowski 1889
: 16,
Cory & Hellmayr 1927
: 317), but both were probably destroyed in the 1920s (cf.
Sztolcman & Domaniewski 1927
: 140; see also
Mlíkovský 2009b
).
Carriker (1931: 122)
erred when he believed that the
types
were still deposited in the MIZ in his time.
Syntype
(lost): MIZ unnumbered (P.7124), 3, collected by Jelski on an unknown date [=
August to December 1870
] at "Monterico" [= Monterrico,
Peru
].

Type
locality
: "Monterico" (
Cabanis 1873a: 67
), i.e. Monterrico,
Peru
[
12.05°S
,
74.10°W
].
Remarks
:
Carriker (1931: 122)
erroneously wrote that the species was described by Cabanis in 1878, which was probably a misprint for 1873.
