TROGLODYTES
(Troglodytidae; Ϯ House Wren T. aedon) Gr. τρωγλοδυτης trōglodutēs  cave-dweller, wren  < τρωγλη trōglē  cave  < τρωγω trōgō  to gnaw; -δυτης -dutēs  diver  < δυω duō  to plunge; "TROGLODYTES.   ....   LE TROGLODYTE ÆDON, Troglodytes ædon.   ...   Les oiseaux de cette petite famille, que le vulgaire et quelques Naturalistes confondent avec les Roitelets sous la même dénomination, en diffèrent non-seulement par leurs habitudes et leur naturel, mais encore par le port de leur queue, leur corps ramassé, et par tout leur ensemble. L'éloquent et profond historien de la nature leur a rendu avec raison le nom de Troglodyte que leur avoient donné les anciens, et qui peint leur goût pour les petites cavernes, les trous de muraille, et généralement tous les endroits obscurs, tandis que les Roitelets ne se plaisent que dans les lieux découverts, se tiennent sur les arbres, y nichent et s'y nourrissent.   ...   LE TROGLODYTE DES ROSEAUX, Troglodytes arundinaceus." (Vieillot 1809); "Troglodytes Vieillot, 1808?¹ Hist. Nat. Ois. Amér. Sept., 2, p. 52. Type, by subsequent designation, Troglodytes aëdon Vieillot (Baird, Rep. Pacific R. R. Surv., 9, p. 367).   ...   ¹ Richmond, 1899, Auk, 16, p. 327, gives Dec. 1, 1807 as the date of publication of the first livraison; presumably Vol. 2 appeared in 1808." (Paynter in Peters 1960, IX, 415). The House Wren has a wide range in the Americas, although some insular forms have been treated specifically.

frater

C. gutturalis and C. gularis, all of them having brown heads and olive-green backs" (Sharpe 1877) (Alophoixus).
● "The difference in color appears very slight.  I attach more importance to the discrepancies in size and proportions.  If the Pacific bird be really distinct from the American, it has probably yet to receive a name; for it is very different from the various species of Anous mostly described by Mr. Gould.  In that event, it may be called a ANOUS FRATER." (Coues 1862) (syn. Anous stolidus pileatus).
● "Schließt als dritte Form an C. rufopileata und soror sich an.  ...  Durch die allerdings nur undeutliche Fleckung des Rückens nähert sich die Art der C. chiniana." (Reichenow 1916) (subsp. Cisticola chiniana).

● “Species assimilis M. carinatae [= Monarcha melanopsis] ex Australia et ejusdem formae, sed facie angustiore nigra et ventre saturatiore castaneo diversa” (P. Sclater, 1874) (Monarcha).
● “The occurrence of two typical species of Amydrus [i.e. Onychognathus frater and Onychognathus blythii] in so small an island as Socotra is very curious; but there seems to be no doubt about the fact” (P. Sclater & Hartlaub, 1881) (Onychognathus).
● "Similar to T. solstitialis, but differs in the eyebrow and eyelid being white instead of rufous or buff, and in the whiter axillaries and under wing-coverts.  ... The White-browed House-Wren replaces the foregoing species [T. solstitialis] in Bolivia" (Sharpe 1881) (subsp. Troglodytes solstitialis).
