DEFINITIONS

ORIOLUS
(Oriolidae; Ϯ Eurasian Golden Oriole O. oriolus) Med. L. oriolus  Golden Oriole; this onomatopoeia echoes the melodic calls of the Eurasian Golden Oriole which are such a distinctive feature of European woodlands in the spring; "52. ORIOLUS.  Rostrum conicum, convexum, acutissimum, rectum: mandibula superiore paulo longiore, obsolete emarginata.  Lingua bifida, acuta.  Pedes ambulatorii." (Linnaeus 1766): based on "Oriolus" and "Chlorion" of Gessner 1555, "Picus nidum suspendens" of Aldrovandus 1599-1603, "Galbula" of Willughby 1676, and Ray 1713, "Turdus luteus" of Frisch 1733-1743, "Coracias Oriolus" of Linnaeus 1746, and "Oriolus luteus" of Linnaeus 1750; "Oriolus Linnaeus, 1766, Syst.

Type, by virtual tautonymy, Oriolus galbula Linnaeus = Coracias oriolus Linnaeus, 1758.   ...   Validation under the Plenary Powers of the generic name Oriolus Linnaeus, 1766, by the suppression of older homonym published by Brisson, 1760.  Direction 21, Inter.

Xanthornus
● (syn. Agelaius Ϯ Red-winged Blackbird A. phoenicius) "Xanthornus, corresponding to AGELAIUS Vieillot, and included in the genus ORIOLUS of Illiger. The bill is straight, thick at base, and acuminate" (Bonaparte 1825).
● (syn. Icterus Ϯ Venezuelan Troupial I. icterus)"XANTHORNVS DECVMANVS.  Xanthornos appello genus avium Americae proprium, satis numerosum, rostri pedumque conformatione et toto habitu ita conjunctum, ut a Natura institutum fuisse nemo dubitare possit; quodque primus BRISSONIVS Icteri nomine redegit.  ...  Icteri nomen a BRISSONIO pro generico adoptatum, quippe ambiguum, cum nova et satis apta Xanthorni appellatione eo lubentius commutavi, quod illud quibusdam speciebus jam antea ab Auctoribus adplicatum fuerit, et fere in omnes, ob solemnem huic generi, cum atro, flavum s. citrinum rubrumque colorem, egregia quadret.  ...  Xanthorni itaque inter Sturnos, Oriolosque et Fringillas medium constituunt, mea sententia, genus" (Pallas 1769); "Xanthornus Pallas, 1769, Spic. Zool., fasc. 6, p. 1; originally proposed as a substitute for Icterus Brisson." (Blake in Peters 1968, XIV, 149).  Var. Zanthornis, Xanthortus.
● (syn. Psarocolius Ϯ Crested Oropendola P. decumanus) "Xanthornus Pallas was originally proposed as a substitute for Icterus Brisson and, consequently, regarded as synonymous with that term. According to the vote of the Zoological Congress at Padua, Brissonian names are, however, no longer recognized as valid. Xanthornus Pallas must, therefore, be classed as a new genus, of which the only species, X. decumanus, becomes the type, and thus replaces Ostinops of much later date." (Hellmayr 1937, X, 10-11).
