bambla
Homophone < French bande blanche white band; ex “Bambla de Cayenne” of d’Aubenton 1765-1781, pl. 703, fig. 2, “Bambla” of de Buffon 1770-1785: “Nous l’avons ainsi nommé, parcequ’il a une bande blanche transversale sur chaque aile,” and “Black-winged Thrush” of Latham 1783. De Buffon wrote that his aim was to conserve native names wherever possible, but a strait-laced Stresemann 1975, regarded the Count as, “an enemy of formalism in nomenclature he chose his specific names as unsystematically as possible - they were intended to be not instructive, but amusing” (Microcerculus).

Wing-banded Wren (albigularis)
SCI Name: Microcerculus bambla albigularis
albigulare / albigularis
L. albus  white; Mod. L. gularis  throated  < L. gula  throat.
● “Hellmayr proposed Automulus roraimae as a new name for Philydor albigularis Salvin and Godman on grounds that it was a homonym of Philydor albogularis Spix ... 1824 ... however under the International Rules albigularis and albogularis are different names” (Peters VII 1951); “Under the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature Art. 58 (8) these two names are homonymous variable spellings and under Arts. 57 and 59 (a) primary homonyms, so Hellmayr was correct and Vaurie was wrong” (Eisennann in Vaurie 1980) (syn. Automolus roraimae).
