Ipoborus stictoptilus Cabanis

Ipoborus (Automolus) stictoptilus Cabanis, 1873a: 66 .

Now: Hylostictes subulatus subulatus (Spix, 1824). See Cory & Hellmayr (1925: 185).

Type series: Cabanis (1873a: 66) based this species on an unspecified number of specimens, but Taczanowski (1875: 528) specified that Jelski sent from Peru only a single relevant specimen, which is thus the holotype of this species. It was deposited in the MIZ ( Taczanowski 1889: 23), but was destroyed in the 1920s (cf. Sztolcman & Domaniewski 1927: 132; see also Mlíkovský 2009b).

Holotype (lost): MIZ unnumbered (N.7151), 3, collected by Jelski on an unknown date [= August to December 1870] at "Monterico" [= Monterrico, Peru].

Type locality: "Monterico" ( Cabanis 1873a: 66), i.e. Monterrico, Peru [12.05°S, 74.10°W].

Remarks: Taczanowski (1889: 23) listed a specimen collected by J. Sztolcman at "Ûrimaguas" [= Yurimaguas, Peru] as a second (syn) type of this species. The latter specimen has no type status (see Mlíkovský 2009b for details).
