DEFINITIONS
CATAMBLYRHYNCHUS
(Thraupidae; Ϯ Plushcap C. diadema) Gr. καταμβλυνω katamblunō or καταμβλυοω katambluoō to blunt; ρυγχος rhunkhos bill; "Gen. CATAMBLYRHYNCHUS (bec obtus et comprimé). Car. Gen. Rostrum breve, arcuatum, valde compressum, maxillæ carina supera planulata, utrinque linea impressa marginata, apice obtusa, rotundata. Alæ mediocres, rotundæ, quatuor remigibus externis gradatis, quarta et quinta longissimis. Cauda satis elongata, tectricibus totis gradatis, apice acuminatis, quarum pogonio externo angusto, recto, interno autem dilatato, rotundato. Pedes fortes, pollice præcipue elongato, ungulo valido terminato. La forme pour ainsi dire toute anomale du bec de l'espèce de Fringille type de ce genre, nous a empêché de la placer dans aucun de ceux déjà existants, et nous a forcé d'en créer un nouveau pour elle. Son nom exprime autant que possible cette particularité de forme. Catamblyrhynchus diadema. ... Habitat in Colombia." (de La Fresnaye 1842); "Catamblyrhynchus Lafresnaye, 1842, Rev. Zool.
