COMMENTS
: The AMNH number of the type was cited in the original description.
Chapman (1924a: 14)
did not give the collecting locality as Miraflores, but that locality and the altitude are on the original field label.
Chapman (1917: 649)
described Miraflores as a bungalow belonging to Mr. Charles J. Eder, on the ‘‘western slope of the Central Andes slightly north of east from Palmira. It is situated at the lower border of the cloud forest of the Subtropical Zone at its junction with the upper border of the here semiarid and treeless Tropical Zone.’’ The elevation is variously given as
6100–6800 ft.
The
paratype
is AMNH 121332 from Enconosa.
Many authors have considered
Thryothorus sclateri
conspecific with
T. rutilus
; see
Ridgely and Tudor (1989: 78)
for discussion.
