Now Vireo leucophrys dissors J.T. Zimmer, 1941 . See Blake, 1968: 129; Olson, 1981: 363–365; Johnson et al., 1988; Dickinson, 2003: 484; and Brewer, 2010: 429–430.

The 14 paratypes are: Cerro Munchique , AMNH 109937 , 109939 , 109940 , two males, one female, 3–7 June 1911, by Richardson ; E. of Palmira, AMNH 109129–109132 , three males, one female, 19–30 April 1911, by Chapman and Richardson ; Primavera, AMNH 505089 , female, 1904, by Raap ; San Antonio, AMNH 108344 , 108345 , 109134 , three females, 5 February–30 March 1911, by Chapman and Richardson ; Salento, AMNH 112614 , 112615 , two males, 27–29 September 1911, by Allen and Miller ; El Eden, AMNH 112613 , female, 21 October 1911, by Allen and Miller .
