DEFINITIONS
PERISSOCEPHALUS
(Cotingidae; Ϯ Capuchinbird P. tricolor) Gr. περισσος perissos extraordinary; κεφαλη kephalē head; "The genus Gymnocephalus Geoffroy St.-Hilaire must give way to Gymnocephalus Bloch and Schneider. In its stead may be employed Perissocephalus, from περισσος, mirabilis, and κεφαλη, caput. The type and sole species is Corvus calvus Gmelin" (Oberholser 1899). Incongruous though it may seem, recent studies imply that this genus should be subsumed into Cephalopterus.
Synon. Calvifrons, Coracina, Gymnocephalus.
