rubicilla
Late Med.

Rubicilla
(syn. Carpodacus Ϯ Great Rosefinch C. rubicilla) Specific name Loxia rubicilla Güldenstädt, 1775; "Le plus grand des Loxiens qui nous soit connu L. rubicilla ou C. caucasicus; le C. rhodochlamys de la Sibérie occidentale; notre Carp. sophia de l'Himalaya; et même le Passer roseus de PALLAS forment le petit groupe des Rubicilla. Leur bec quoique fort n'est nullement renflé, et ressemble plutôt à celui du Pinson ou du moins du Verdier, qu'à celui des Bouvreuils." (Bonaparte 1850); "Rubicilla Bonaparte and Schlegel, 1850, Monogr. Loxiens, p. 14. Type, by tautonymy, Loxia rubicilla Güldenstädt." (Paynter in Peters 1968, XIV, 267).
