Discussion: See Hershkovitz (1977:601-603). For a summary of interrelationships between species, using external, cranial, vocalization and DNA evidence, see Groves (2001 c:137-8), who divided the genus into the following species groups: (1) S. midas group ( midas , niger ), (2) S. nigricollis group ( nigricollis , graellsi , fuscicollis , melanoleucus , tropartitus), (3) S. mystax group ( mystax , pileatus , labiatus , imperator ), (4) S. bicolor group ( bicolor , martinsi ), (5) S. oedipus group ( oedipus , geoffroyi , leucopus ), (6) S. inustus group ( inustus only).
