Saltator aurantiirostris bolivianus Chapman Saltator aurantiirostris hellmayri Bond and Meyer de Schauensee

Saltator aurantiirostris bolivianus Chapman, 1927b: 3 (Tujma, 8200 ft., Dept. Cochabamba, Bolivia).

Now Saltator aurantiirostris hellmayri Bond and Meyer de Schauensee, 1939 . See Hellmayr, 1938: 33, Paynter, 1970d: 234, and Dickinson, 2003: 825.

HOLOTYPE: AMNH 139630 View Materials , adult male, collected at Tujma , 8200 ft, ca. 17.52S, 65.18W ( Paynter, 1992), Cochabamba, Bolivia, on 25 September 1915, by Leo E. Miller (no. 13865) and Howarth Boyle. GoogleMaps

COMMENTS: In the original description, Chapman gave the AMNH number of the holotype, and on pages 18–19 of the same publication listed the specimens examined. Of bolivianus he had nine from Parotani, AMNH 137983–137988 View Materials , 148837–148839 View Materials ; five (only four cataloged) from Vinto , AMNH 137989–137992 View Materials ; two from Rio Cachimayo , AMNH 139621 View Materials , 139622 View Materials ; eight (of which I found only five) from Rio Pilcomayo , AMNH 139624–139628 View Materials ; five (+ the type) from Tujma (of which I found only four), AMNH 139629 View Materials , 139631,139632 View Materials , 139635 View Materials ; two from California, AMNH 139638 View Materials , 139639 View Materials ; one from Chilon , AMNH 139640 View Materials ; and four (actually five) from Pulque , AMNH 139641– 139645 View Materials . AMNH 139633 View Materials was apparently part of a large exchange to BIM in 1923, although the date is not entered in the catalog, and was not returned when the BIM collection was deposited at AMNH in 1935. It would not have been available to Chapman when bolivianus was described .

Hellmayr (1938: 33) noted that Chapman’s name Saltator aurantiirostris bolivianus was preoccupied by S. cayanus bolivianus Chubb, 1921 , a synonym of S. m. maximus Mueller, 1776 . Bond and Meyer de Schauensee (1939: 2) then provided the replacement name S. a. hellmayri. The two names share the same type (ICZN, 1999: 78, Art. 72.7).
