Xiphorhynchus nanus demonstratus Hartert and Goodson ,

Now Xiphorhynchus guttatus nanus (Lawrence, 1863) . See

Phelps and Phelps, 1963: 35, and Meyer de Schauensee and Phelps, 1978: 186.

HOLOTYPE: AMNH 524820 , male adult, collected in San Esteban Valley , near Puerto Cabello, 10°28′N, 68°01′W, Carabobo, Venezuela, on 11 November 1909, by Samuel M. Klages (no. 2823). From the Rothschild Collection.

Dendrornis consobrinus Dalmas Dendrornis consobrinus Dalmas, 1900: 140 (Ile de Trinidad).

Now Xiphorhynchus susurrans susurrans (Jardine, 1847) .

See Hartert, 1922: 389, and Ridgely and Tudor, 1994:

203.

HOLOTYPE?: AMNH 524852 , unsexed, collected at Teocos ?, Trinidad, on 20 January 1897. From the Museo Dalmas via the Rothschild Collection.

COMMENTS: It is not clear whether the original description was based on only one specimen. If other specimens are proven to have been part of the original material, then this specimen would become the lectotype, designated by Hartert (1922: 389).

Dendrornis Jardinei Dalmas

Dendrornis Jardinei Dalmas, 1900: 140 (Côte de Paria) .

Now Xiphorhynchus susurrans jardinei (Dalmas, 1900) .

See Ridgely and Tudor, 1994: 203.

HOLOTYPE?: AMNH 524882 , unsexed, collected near Cumaná (according to the original label, see also Cory and Hellmayr, 1925: 302), Sucre, Venezuela, in 1897, by Eugene André. From the Dalmas Collection via the Rothschild Collection.

COMMENTS: Dalmas, in his original description, neither designated a type nor listed specimens, but a wing measurement of 110 mm was given. Hartert (1922: 389) listed the above specimen as the type, and Cumaná as the type locality, without comment. The wing of this specimen agrees in length with that given by Dalmas, and AMNH does not have other André or Dalmas specimens of this taxon. It probably is the holotype. If other specimens are proven to have been part of the original material, then this specimen would be the lectotype.
