DEFINITIONS

SICALIS
(Thraupidae; Ϯ Saffron Finch S. flaveola brasiliensis) Gr. σικαλις sikalis, συκαλλις sukallis or συκαλις sukalis, συκαλιδος sukalidos  small, black-headed bird, mentioned by Epicharmus, Aristotle, and other authors, not further identified, but perhaps a sort of warbler  < συκη sukē  fig-tree; Boie probably believed the classical name referred to the yellow buntings Emberiza, hence his bestowal of the generic epithet upon this group of yellow birds; "Die Zweckmäßigkeit, mit diesen gelb gefärbten Arten folgende zu verbinden, aus America:   1. Fringilla magellanica Gm. (dieser Vogel hat in neuerer Zeit wieder 2 neue Namen, icterica Lichst. und campestris Spix, erhalten.)    2. Fr. brasiliensis Gm.  ardens Illiger.  mexicana Forster. (nach Kuhls Annotation bey Ansicht der Forsterschen Zeichnungen).   3. Fr. lepida Gm.     Aus Africa:   4. Fr. butyracea Gm.  welche ebenfalls auf Feldern von Sämerenen leben, scheint mir 'sehr problematisch. Wahrscheinlich sind diese Vögel Repräsentanten einer besonderen Gruppe, für welche der Name Sicalis passend seyn würde" (Boie 1828); "Sicalis Boie, 1828, Isis von Oken, 21, col. 324. Type, by subsequent designation (Cabanis, in Tschudi, 1846, Unters. Faun. Peru., Aves, p. 215), Emberiza brasiliensis Gmelin." (Paynter in Peters 1970, XIII, 122).
