DEFINITIONS
BOLBORHYNCHUS
(Psittacidae; Ϯ Barred Parakeet B. lineola) Gr. βολβος bolbos bulb (i.e. bulbous); ῥυγχος rhunkhos bill; "small parrots with broad, blunt bills" (Forshaw & Cooper 1973); "Quoique M. Cassin et M. de Souancé paraissent avoir décrit la même espèce sous les deux noms de lineola du Mexique et du tigrina de Venezuela, il n'en est pas moins vrai que la Myiopsitta, ou, pour mieux dire, que le Bolborhynchus du Mexique diffère de celui de Caraccas. Le premier de ces savants se serait-il laissé induire en erreur sur la provenance? Voici les phrases comparatives de ces races: 54. Bolborhynchus tigrinus, Bp. (Myopsitta tigrina, Souancé, - Psittacula lineola? Cass. Proceed. Ac. Nat. Sc. Philad. VI, 1853, p. 373, sp. 2, exl. patria). Rev. Zool. Guérin, 1856, p. 144. Mus. Paris. a Levrault ex Caraccas. ... 55. Bolborhynchus catharina, Bp. (Myopsitta catharina, Bp., - Myopsitta lineola, Bp. in Comptes rendus Ac. Sc. et in Naumannia, 1856) Mus. Paris. a Sallæo ex Mexico, Tulancingo" (Bonaparte 1857) (OD per Laurent Raty); "Bolborhynchus Bonaparte, Remarques Obs. Blanchard Caractères Psittacides, etc., 1857, p. 6. Type, by subsequent designation, Myiopsitta catharina Bonaparte = Psittacula lineola Cassin (Richmond, Proc. Biol. Soc. Wash., 28, 1915, p. 183.)" (Peters, 1937, III, p. 201) (see Amoropsittaca).
Var. Bolborrhynchus.
Synon. Grammopsittaca.
