COMMENTS: Moore and Tate (1965) treated pyrrhomerus as a separate species based on evidence of geographic parapatry, D. p. gularis with D. r. rufigenis ( Osgood, 1932) . Corbet and Hill (1992) listed gularis as a separate species, but considered other forms of pyrrhomerus to be conspecific with rufigenis .
