3. Merge Saltatricula Burmeister, 1861

(type = Saltator multicolor Burmeister, 1860 , currently Saltatricula multicolor ), into Saltator Vieillot, 1816 (type = Tanagra maxima Statius Müller, 1776 , currently Saltator maximus ) ( Fig. 1 ), reverting to the original.

FIGURE 1. Maximum clade credibility tree from the Bayesian analyses of Burns et al. (2014). Subfamilies Catamblyrhynchinae, Charitospizinae, Orchesticinae, Nemosiinae, Emberizoidinae, Porphyrospizinae, Hemithraupinae, Dacninae, and Saltatorinae shown. Branch lengths are proportional to the number of nucleotide substitutions, and only strongly supported nodes (> 70 maximum likelihood bootstrap or> 0.95 posterior probability) are shown. Nodes that fail to meet either support threshold are collapsed to polytomies. The posterior probability from the Bayesian analysis is given above the branch leading to each node, and the maximum likelihood bootstrap value is given below that branch. Circled numbers correspond to recommended changes described in the text. Names along the backbone represent the subfamily classification proposed in Burns et al. (2014). Names at terminals correspond to classification alternative 1 (from Table 1). Names in parentheses are used in Clements et al. (2015). Sister clades and polytomies are arranged from least to most speciose.
