Reichenbach's 1850, plate LXXVII, labelled Passerinae: Fringillinae Tanagrinae, shows the distinctive small mask of the Cinnamon Tanager; "Gen. SCHISTOCHLAMYS Reichb. 1850. Graumantel. Diucopis (!) Bonap. pt." (Cabanis 1851); G. Gray, 1855, Cat. Genera Subgenera Birds Brit. Mus., p. 73, gives Tanagra fasciata Lichtenstein, 1823 (now in Neothraupis) as the type, but Reichenbach's figure is clearly not that form; "Schistochlamys Reichenbach, 1850, Av. Syst. Nat., pl. 77. Type, by subsequent designation (P. L. Sclater, 1886, Cat. Birds Brit. Mus., 11, p. 301), Tanagra capistrata Wied." (Storer in Peters, 1970, XIII, p. 247).
