DEFINITIONS

CERTHIA
(Certhiidae; Ϯ Eurasian Treecreeper C. familiaris) Gr. κερθιος kerthios small, tree-dwelling. insect-eating bird mentioned by Aristotle, perhaps the treecreeper Certhia but never properly identified. "59. CERTHIA.  Rostrum arcuatum, tenue, subtrigonum.  Lingua acuta." (Linnaeus 1758); "Genus CERTHIA.  Type by Linnean tautonymy and by subsequent designation of Gray (List Gen. Bds. 1st ed. 1840, p. 18): C. familiaris." (BOU 1915); "Certhia Linnaeus, 1758, Syst. Nat., ed. 10, 1, p. 118. Type, by tautonymy², Certhia familiaris Linnaeus.  ...  ² Int. Comm. Zool. Nomen., 1955, 1, Sec. C (C-8), pp. 89-112. Direction 17." (Greenway in Peters, 1967, XII, p. 150). Linnaeus's Certhia comprised five species (C. familiaris, C. pusilla, C. cærulea, C. cruentata, C. flaveola).  In nomenclature and generic combination the name is applied to a variety of thin- or curve-billed species, or those with creeper-like toes and claws.

I. p. 467, II" (Boddaert 1783); ex “Picucule de Cayenne” of d’Aubenton 1765-1781, pl. 621, and “Pic-grimpereau” of de Buffon 1770-1785: "nous avons cru devoir les nommer pic-grimpereaux, parce qu'ils sont la nuance entre le genre des pics & celui des grimpereaux; la première & la plus grande espèce, etant plus voisine des grimpereaux par son bec courbé, & la seconde étant au contraire plus voisine des pics par son bec droit. Toutes deux ont trois doigts en avant & un en arrière comme les grimpereaux, & en même temps les pennes de la queue roides & pointues comme les pics" (Dendrocolaptes).
