    Furnariidae

    Just one detail, if I may : Phylidor was authored by Spix in 1824, hence there is obviously no way that Wied-Neuwied proposed a species in this genus, as the above seems to imply, in 1821. The species described by Wied-Neuwied was Anabates atricapillus Wied-Neuwied 1821. The nominal species...

    Looks perfectly OK now. (y) (Congrats to the authors for providing such a rapid fix.)

    Furnariidae

    (I disagree with the last message in Vitor's thread, though. The work not being registered in ZooBank makes it unpublished, and no requirements of the Code can be fulfilled by referring to unpublished material. To scoop the authors, you'd need to publish a diagnosis.) Beware that this journal...

    Not validly published ? (Online-only journal, no ZooBank registration.)

    Furnariidae

    Thanks Mark. Yes Metopothrichinae and Xenerpestinae on this page are definitely nude. Pipridae and Platyrinchinae in the other pdf would be nude as well if they were new here (which they were not -- Pipridae is either by Rafinesque 1815, if you accept his names, or by Vigors 1825, if you don't...

    Furnariidae

    You should more than likely also include Roraimia in the group, if you want it to be a clade. (Roraimia is admittedly sister to an apparent Thripophaga/Cranioleuca/Limnoctites clade in the present study, but this clade lacks statistical support; Roraimia was embedded in the group formed by...

    Furnariidae

    'Thripophagini' ...is not an available name, I'm afraid. ([OD here]. The statement "most inclusive crown clade that contains Acrobatornis fonsecai, Xenerpestes singularis, and Thripophaga fusciceps but not Synallaxis albescens" is a phylogenetic definition, not a 'diagnosis' in the sense of...

    Furnariidae

    A quite ambiguous case, I would say. In Latin, rutilus, -a, -um (=red) is a standard adjective; rutilans (= reddening) is the present participle of the verb rutilare. Can two perfectly correct distinct Latin words with (even if slightly) different meanings be called two 'spellings' of a single...

    Furnariidae

    Placing them in Megaxenops (1905) would require a reversal of precedence if Dendroma (1836) applies to them. Going through the identification of the OINS (in principle, the nominal species cited by an available name in the OD; if there is none (as here), the nominal species cited by an...

    Furnariidae

    The name is certainly available (in the nomenclatural sense of the term), and I'd say it can be used; but the issue seems a bit more complicated than indicated, i.a., higher up in the present thread. OD: Under the ICZN, the name is available from Swainson 1836 [here] without any included...
