Polska.   ...   (*) Pán Cuvier utworzył ten rodzáy na słusznych zasadach; a Polskie gatunkowe nazwisko tak w łacińskiéy jak francuzkiéy terminologii zrobił nazwiskiem rodzaiowéin.  Do tego rodzaiu náležy kilka gatunków z jnnych części świata; lecz tych nié má w tuteyszym zbiorze."

● "This species is nearly allied to P. columbianus, Cab., [= subsp. Philydor rufum], and P. panerythrus, mihi [= subsp. Philydor rufum] ...This bird is also not unlike P. turdinus [= subsp. Automolus ochrolaemus] of Von Pelzeln" (P. Sclater 1870) (subsp. Cryptomolus rufipileatus).
● "With a general resemblance to Hylophylax naevia (Gmelin)" (Todd 1913) (subsp. Hylophylax naevius).
● "♀. Allied to Oriolus xanthonotus, but differs in having the head, sides of the face, and ear-coverts smoky cinereous" (Wardlaw Ramsay 1880) (subsp. Oriolus xanthonotus).
● "1.  Thryothorus consobrinus n. sp.  Diese neue Art steht dem Th. genibarbis Sw. am nächsten, von welchem sie in folgenden Merkmalen abweicht: Der Rücken ist lebhafter rostfarbig; die Grundfarbe des Schwanzes ist rostroth (bei Th. genibarbis bräunlich grau); die Kehle ist weiss, mit lehmgelbem Anflug; der Kropf, die Brust und der Bauch sind gelblich fahlbraun, an den Seiten mit dunkelgrauem Anflug." (von Madarász) (subsp. Pheugopedius mystacalis).
● "This race is somewhat intermediate between P. oregonus [= subsp. Pipilo maculatus] and P. carmani [= syn. Pipilo maculatus socorroensis], but seems to be most like the latter" (Ridgway 1876) (‡subsp. Pipilo maculatus).
● “I consider the discovery of this species most interesting, as affording a case analogous to that of Cyanopica, which appears restricted to Spain and Portugal in Europe and then turns up in China about the Yangtze and northwards, extending to Japan, in a somewhat modified form. The Penduline Tit occurs only in South Europe; and we find it again rather changed on the banks of the Yangtze 850 miles from the sea” (Swinhoe 1879) (Remiz).
