DEFINITIONS

HYPOCRYPTADIUS
(Passeridae; † Cinnamon Ibon H. cinnamomeus) Gr. ὑπο hupo  beneath; κρυπταδιος kruptadios  hidden  < κρυπτω kruptō  to hide; Hartert did not enlighten his readers, so his new generic name could refer either to the hidden nostrils, or to the hidden cinnamon-coloured inner-webs of the flight feathers of this bird; "HYPOCRYPTADIUS, gen. nov. Zosteropidarum.  Bill rather higher and comparatively short, the culmen distinctly curved; nasal groove less than one-third of the length of the exposed portion of the culmen; culminal ridge more rounded. Wings as in Zosterops (i.e. "nine-primaried"), the first (developed) primary only 5 mm. shorter than the next and at least 1½ cm. longer than the secondaries. Larger than Zosterops, coloration different from all Zosteropidæ. Sexes alike. Feet very strong, but structurally similar to those of Zosterops.   HYPOCRYPTADIUS CINNAMOMEUS, n. sp." (Hartert 1903); "Hypocryptadius Hartert, 1903, Bull. Brit. Orn. Club, 14, p. 13. Type, by monotypy, H. cinnamomeus Hartert." (Mayr in Peters, 1967, XII, p. 325).  The peculiar Cinnamon Ibon was for long considered a white-eye Zosteropidae, and known as Cinnamon White-eye, but is now linked with the sparrows and snowfinches.  Ibon is the Tagalog (Philippines) word for 'bird'.
