Diglossa venezuelensis Chapman

Diglossa venezuelensis Chapman, 1925c: 11 (Carapas, alt. 5600 ft.).

Now Diglossa venezuelensis Chapman, 1925 . See Hellmayr, 1935: 233–234, Vuilleumier, 1969, Isler and Isler, 1999: 362, and Dickinson, 2003: 816.

HOLOTYPE: AMNH 188021 , adult male, collected at Carapas , 5600 ft, ca. 10.12N, 63.56W ( Paynter, 1982), Cerro Turumiquire, Sucre, Venezuela, on 28 March 1925, by George H.H. Tate (no. 417).

COMMENTS: Chapman gave the AMNH number of the holotype in the original description. Under ‘‘Specimens Examined,’’ Chapman said he had eight males and three females, all from Carapas, but only a total of eight specimens were cataloged at AMNH. The seven paratypes, all collected in 1925 by

Tate and Clement, are: AMNH 188544 , female, 30 March ; AMNH 188545 , male, 30 March ; AMNH 188546 , adult male, 30 March ; AMNH 188547 , adult male, 31 March ; AMNH 188548 , female, 1 April ; AMNH 188549 , immature male, 12 April ; AMNH 188550 , adult male, no day or month. Of these AMNH 188545 and 188547 were exchanged to Colección Phelps in July 1944. See Tate (1931) for an account of the ascent of Cerro Turumiquire .
