Fringilla ornata Wied Charitospiza eucosma Oberholser

Fringilla ornata Wied, 1821: 191 (Fazenda Valo) . Charitospiza eucosma Oberholser, 1905: 67 View in CoL . Now Charitospiza eucosma Oberholser, 1905 View in CoL . See

Hellmayr, 1938: 374–375, Sick, 1997: 778, and

Dickinson, 2003: 801.

SYNTYPES: AMNH 4622, male, and AMNH 4623, female, collected in Brazil, by Maximillian, Prince of Wied. From the Maximillian Collection.

COMMENTS: Allen (1889b: 225) listed these two specimens as syntypes of Fringilla ornata Wied , under the then-current name Tiaris ornata . These specimens formerly had been mounted and the one original label had served for both specimens, with both male and female sex symbols. This label is pasted on the reverse of the label on the female. The type locality was given by Wied as Fazenda Valo, near the frontier of Minas Gerais and Bahia. Allen (1889b: 225) gave the type locality as Barra da Vareda , interior of the ‘‘Province of Brazil.’’ This was undoubtedly based on Wied (1830: 613): ‘‘Dieser niedliche Vogel lebt im inneren Brasilien. Ich fand ihn in den mit Gesträuchen abwechselnden Gegenden von Barra da Vareda im Sertog der Provinz Bahia, wo ich ein einziges Paar dieser Vögel erhielt.’’ According to Hellmayr (1938: 374), these two localities are in the same district of Bahia. Paynter (1970b: 209) equated Fazenda Valo with Geral do Valo 5 Serra Geral, 15.25S, 42.48W ( Paynter and Traylor, 1991). Wied (1830: 613) also mentioned that Temminck, 1823 ( Temminck and Laugier de Chartrouse, 1820 –1839), had illustrated these birds on plate 208.

Oberholser (1905: 67) introduced the generic name Charitospiza and provided the replacement name, Charitospiza eucosma for Fringilla ornata Wied , preoccupied by Fringilla ornata Vieillot, 1817 . The two names share the same syntypes (ICZN 1999: 78, Art. 72.7).
