Its use as a meaningful taxonomic indicator has been defunct for well over a century, as the “warblers” encompass hundreds of thin-billed, insectivorous passerines across more than a dozen families worldwide. This is not itself an issue, as many other passerine names (flycatcher, tanager, sparrow, etc.) share this common name “polyphyly”, and conventions or modifiers are widely used to designate and separate families that include multiple groups.

  • 21 Sep 2018 Lists of Victims and Hosts of the Parasitic
    version: 21 Sep 2018 Lists of victims and hosts of the parasitic cowbirds (Molothrus). Peter E. Lowther, Field Museum Brood parasitism is an awkward term to describe an interaction between two species in which, as in predator-prey relationships, one species gains at the expense of the other. Brood parasites "prey" upon parental care. Victimized species usually have reduced breeding success, partly because of the additional cost of caring for alien eggs and young, and partly because of the behavior of brood parasites (both adults and young) which may directly and adversely affect the survival of the victim's own eggs or young. About 1% of all bird species, among 7 families, are brood parasites. The 5 species of brood parasitic “cowbirds” are currently all treated as members of the genus Molothrus. Host selection is an active process. Not all species co-occurring with brood parasites are equally likely to be selected nor are they of equal quality as hosts. Rather, to varying degrees, brood parasites are specialized for certain categories of hosts. Brood parasites may rely on a single host species to rear their young or may distribute their eggs among many species, seemingly without regard to any characteristics of potential hosts. Lists of species are not the best means to describe interactions between a brood parasitic species and its hosts. Such lists do not necessarily reflect the taxonomy used by the brood parasites themselves nor do they accurately reflect the complex interactions within bird communities (see Ortega 1998: 183-184). Host lists do, however, offer some insight into the process of host selection and do emphasize the wide variety of features than can impact on host selection.

Gary Stiles3 & Carlos Daniel Cadena1 1Laboratorio de Biología Evolutiva de Vertebrados, Departamento de Ciencias Biológicas, Universidad de los Andes, A.A. Ornitología Colombiana Ornitología 4976, Bogotá, Colombia. 2Current address: Programa de Biología y Museo de Historia Natural, Universidad de los Llanos, Sede Barcelona, Villavicencio, Colombia. 3Instituto de Ciencias Naturales, Universidad Nacional de Colombia, A.A. 7495, Bogotá, Colombia. [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] Abstract We describe Chlorospingus flavopectus olsoni, subsp. nov. from the east slope of the Eastern Andes of Colombia. Specimens from the range of the new subspecies have been traditionally referred to C. f. macarenae, a subspecies endemic to the Ser- ranía de la Macarena. However, C. f. olsoni differs from C. f. macarenae in plumage, iris coloration, and morphometrics. The new subspecies is more similar in plumage and vocal characters to subspecies exitelus and nigriceps from the Central and Eastern Andes. Ecological niche modeling suggests that C. f. olsoni is potentially restricted to a small belt of cloud forest south of the Sierra Nevada del Cocuy to the depression known as Las Cruces Pass in the department of Huila. The species C. flavopectus is not threatened, but the accelerated deforestation of cloud forests in Colombia and the uncertainty about spe- cies limits in the complex call attention to the importance of preserving the remaining patches of this highly species-rich eco- system.

    NC2006 (fauna) Doc. 4.1 (English only/Únicamente en inglés/Seulement en anglais) CONVENTION ON INTERNATIONAL TRADE IN ENDANGERED SPECIES OF WILD FAUNA AND FLORA ____________ Nomenclature Committee Fauna Lima (Peru), 10 July 2006 Update on issues following CoP13 BIRD NOMENCLATURE 1. This document has been submitted by the zoologist of the Nomenclature Committee. 2. At the latest meeting of the Nomenclature Committee (fauna) in Geneva, on 23 May 2005, the zoologist of the Nomenclature Committee suggested to consider the Howard and Moore Complete Checklist of the Birds of the World, edited by Dickinson1, as new standard reference for the bird nomenclature. She promised to provide a document for the next NC meeting in 2006 outlining the consequences of the adoption of this reference for the present nomenclature of CITES listed bird species. 3. The present document is based on an analysis carried out by Tim Inskipp (UNEP-WCMC), who compared the bird species so far accepted under CITES with the bird taxa in the The Howard and Moore Complete Checklist of the Birds of the World edited by Dickinson. 4. CITES Appendices currently include altogether 1,570 species or subspecies of birds. The adoption of the Howard and Moore Checklist edited by Dickinson would result in: – 141 one-to-one replacements (86 generic changes, 50 spelling changes, 5 name replacements) (see Annex 1); – 39 changes of species being reduced to subspecies level (see Annex 2); and – 45 split-listings where present subspecies are elevated to species level (see Annex 3). 5. One-to-one replacements will create no implementation problem as in the case of re-exports old documents the old scientific names can be easily be related to the new valid names.

(2014) and the new classification of Stiles et al. (2017). Here we propose a new linear sequence using the revised names, based on these sources and an additional recent paper (Hernández- Baños et al. 2020). Stiles et al. (2017) split the tree from McGuire et al. (2014) into four parts for convenience; these trees were used in Proposal 2020-A-2 and are reproduced below. In the original phylogeny in McGuire et al. (2014), these trees are connected as follows: A and B are sister groups (although with little support), C and D are sister groups, and A+B and C+D are sister groups.

Collared Puffbird RBT Ecuador Trip Report 2011 2 Tour Intro Ecuador is quite simply incredible! In the past 15 years, this humble country has become the most traversed and well-known of all South American nations by birders, and for good reason. Despite being no larger in size than the state of Colorado (USA), and occupying less than one-quarter the size of the Republic of Colombia, Ecuador has 30% more bird species than the whole of North America and only 16% less than Colombia. This is no doubt due to the fact that Ecuador’s political boundaries include some of the highest peaks in the Andean chain, perpetually snow-bound, and, of course, the humid rainforests of the Amazon, while two distinct Andean chains result in a dry Inter- Andean Valley with separate rainshadows on the outer slopes, and every habitat that such a varied and rich equatorial topography could possible harbor. The goal of this tour was to provide an introduction to these incredible birding zones. In most countries, 14 days would fall far short in terms of adequately representing such diversity: distances would be too great, travel times prohibitive and, quite often, infrastructure in rural South America just doesn’t allow for any visitors.
