DEFINITIONS

ANTHIPES
(Muscicapidae; Ϯ White-gorgetted Flycatcher A. monileger gularis) Genus Anthus Bechstein, 1805, pipit; L. pes, pedis  foot  < Gr. πους pous, ποδος podos  foot; “Anthipes, nobis.  This would probably be classed by Mr. Swainson with his Fluvicolinæ, or "Water-chats."  With the general form of a Pratincola, it combines a Flycatcher’s bill, and the toes and claws of an Anthus or Pipit.  Beak flattened, rather wide at base, and narrowing evenly to the tip; the ridge of the upper mandible distinctly angulated, and its tip considerably overhanging that of the lower mandible, and (as usual in such cases) emarginated: nostrils basal, nearly closed by the membrane, their aperture a narrow lateral fissure: gape armed with fine but firm vibrissæ.  Tarse slender, as long as the middle toe with its claw: the toes and claws suited for running, as in the Pipits; the middle front claw greatly exceeding the two lateral ones, and the hind claw as long as the toe, and but slightly curved, as are also the other claws.  Wings moderate, rounded; the fourth, fifth, and sixth primaries sub-equal and longest, the third and seventh rather shorter, the second much shorter, and the first half the length of trhe second.  Tail even, of moderate length, or somewhat short, the wings reaching half-way to its tip.  Plumage full and dense.    A. gularis, nobis.   ...   From Arracan, where discovered by Capt. Phayre.  The Dimorpha? moniliger, Hodgson, Ann. Mag. N. H. 1845, p. 196. would seem, from the description, to approximate the above species in its markings.” (Blyth 1847); "Anthipes Blyth, 1847, Journ. Asiat. Soc. Bengal, 16, p. 122. Type, by monotypy, Anthipes gularis Blyth." (Watson in Peters, 1986, XI, p. 335).
