Scytalopus unicolor intermedius Zimmer, 1939: 4 (La

Lejia, north of Chachapoyas, Perú; altitude 9000 feet). Now Scytalopus unicolor intermedius Zimmer, 1939 . See

Krabbe and Schulenberg, 1997: 55–56.

HOLOTYPE: AMNH 234580 , adult male, collected at La Lejía, ca. 06°10′S, 77°31′W, 9000 ft, Amazonas , Peru, on 3 March 1925, by Harry Watkins (no. 8868). GoogleMaps

Scytalopus unicolor parvirostris Zimmer Scytalopus unicolor parvirostris Zimmer, 1939: 3 (Río

Aceramarca, Bolivia; altitude 10,800 feet).

Now Scytalopus parvirostris Zimmer, 1939 . See Whitney,

1994b: 609–610, Arctander and Fjeldså, 1994, and

Krabbe and Schulenberg, 1997: 55–56.

HOLOTYPE: AMNH 229194 , nearly adult male, collected at Río Aceromarca , 16°18′S, 67°53′W, 10,800 ft, La Paz, Bolivia, on 25 May 1926, by George H. H. Tate. GoogleMaps

COMMENTS: The number 24, recorded by Zimmer in the original description, is the number of this collecting locality on Tate’s “List of Biological Collecting Stations worked by G. H. H. Tate in the Cordillera Real, Bolivia, 1926” held in the Department of Ornithology Archives. He described the Río “Aceramarca” thus: “The stream in the great glaciat- ed valley that is visible directly across the Unduavi valley from the point of rails at Ichulema.

“Camp half an hour up valley where the projected road-bed crosses the stream. Valley edged by tremendous cliffs that carry puno country at the tops. Detritus from the rock walls supports cold temperate forest. A very few hundred feet up stream marks the end of trees. Brush replaces forest here and there on the more exposed slopes. Grass too.”

Scytalopus sanctae-martae Chapman Scytalopus sanctae-martae Chapman, 1915b: 418 (Valparaiso (alt. 4,500–5,500 ft.) Santa Marta Mts.   GoogleMaps , Col.). Now Scytalopus sanctaemartae Chapman, 1915 . See Krabbe and Schulenberg, 1997: 55, 68. HOLOTYPE: AMNH 72893 , adult male, collected at Cincinati (= Valparaiso), 11°06′N, 74°06′W, 4500– 5000 ft, Magdalena, Colombia, on 9 June 1899, by Grace H. Hull, a niece of Mrs. Herbert H. Smith.

Scytalopus femoralis confusus Zimmer Scytalopus femoralis confusus Zimmer, 1939: 10 (Miraflores, east of Palmira, Colombia; altitude 6800 feet).

Now Scytalopus atratus confusus Zimmer, 1939 . See Krabbe and Schulenberg, 1997: 55, 68.

HOLOTYPE: AMNH 108905 , adult male, collected above Miraflores , ca. 03°35′N, 76°10′W, 6800 ft, east of Palmira, Valle del Cauca, Colombia, on 27 April 1911, by Frank M. Chapman and William GoogleMaps

B. Richardson.

COMMENTS: On the field label, the altitude of Miraflores is given as 6200 ft. Chapman (1917: 25) noted: “Above us was the lower border of the luxuriant subtropical forest; below, the bush-grown or bare hills leading to the valley.” The published altitude of 6800 ft would be correct for this bird of the subtropical forests.

Krabbe and Schulenberg (1997: 55, 68) treated atratus as an allospecies in the superspecies S. [ bolivianus ].

Scytalopus bolivianus Allen

Scytalopus bolivianus Allen, 1889a: 98 View in CoL (Reyes, Bolivia).

Now Scytalopus bolivianus Allen, 1889 View in CoL . See Whitney, 1994b: 610, and Krabbe and Schulenberg, 1997: 55, 68. HOLOTYPE: AMNH 30741 , adult, sex?, said to have been collected at Reyes , 14°19′S, 67°23′W, El Beni, Bolivia, in June 1886, by Dr. Henry H. Rusby. COMMENTS: Zimmer (1939: 8) noted that this specimen probably came from a higher altitude near- er La Paz. GoogleMaps

Scytalopus chiriquensis Griscom Scytalopus chiriquensis Griscom, 1924a: 3 (Cerro Flores

(alt. 5500 ft), eastern Chiriqui, Panama).

Now Scytalopus argentifrons chiriquensis Griscom, 1924 .

See Krabbe and Schulenberg, 1997: 55, 83.

HOLOTYPE: AMNH 182732 , adult male, collected at Cerro Flores , 5500 ft (original field label gives 5000 ft), eastern Chiriqui, Panama, on 14 March 1924, by Rex R. Benson (no. 227) and Ludlow Griscom.
