SUBSPECIES

Parrot-billed Seedeater (devronis)
SCI Name: Sporophila peruviana devronis
devronis
Although dedicated to 'M. Devron' by J. Verreaux 1852, this is undoubtedly a misspelling for M. Drevon (fl. 1860) French naturalist, collector. The eponym was spelled drovoni by Bonaparte 1854 and Bonaparte 1856, and drevonis by J. Verreaux 1869 (Mark Brown and Laurent Raty in litt.) (subsp. Sporophila peruviana).
