Chlorospingus auricularis Cabanis

Chlorospingus (Hemispingus) auricularis Cabanis, 1873c: 318 .

Now: Hemispingus atropileus auricularis (Cabanis, 1873) (Dickinson 2003: 803) or Hemispingus auricularis (Cabanis, 1873) (García-Moreno et al. 2001) . See also Hellmayr (1936: 420).

Type series: Cabanis (1873c: 318) based this species on an unspecified number of specimens. The Accession Catalogue of the ZMB listed only one such specimen, which is thus the holotype of this species.

Holotype: ZMB 21193 (B-9985), 3 (?), collected by Jelski on an unknown date [= May to August 1871] at "Maraynioc" [= Maraynioc, Peru].

Type locality: "Maraynioc" (Cabanis 1873c: 318), i.e. Maraynioc, Peru [11.37°S, 75.40°W].

Remarks: Taczanowski (1889: 28) wrote that the MIZ possesses several type specimens of this species (see also Sztolcman & Domaniewski 1927: 187). These specimens, which have not survived, had no type status (see Mlíkovský 2009b for details).
