DEFINITIONS

EUMOMOTA
(Momotidae; Ϯ Turquoise-browed Motmot E. superciliosa) Gr. ευ eu  fine, beauty; genus Momotus Brisson 1760, motmot; "Genus IV. EUMOMOTA, gen. nov.  Rostrum Prionorhynchi sed minus carinatum et dilatatum, paulum incurvum, mandibularum marginum media solum parte serrata: caudæ rectricibus decem, harum quinque utrinque extimæ graduatæ, ad apicem quadriformes; mediæ duæ ceteris duplo longiores, magna parte denudatæ et spatulis terminatæ.    1. EUMOMOTA SUPERCILIARIS.  ...  This beautiful bird, with the peculiar incurved bill—the serration of which is confined to the middle of the mandibles—and comparatively short tail, with the two medial rectrices far projecting and denuded to a much greater extent than in other Motmots, seems to present characters quite as distinctive as Hylomanes or Prionirhynchus, and I have accordingly proposed for it the new generic name Eumomota."
