DEFINITIONS

TRICHODERE
(Meliphagidae; Ϯ White-streaked Honeyeater T. cockerelli) Gr. θριξ thrix, τριχος trikhos  hair; δερη derē  throat; “I wish also to point out a new genus of Australian birds, which I propose to call Trichodere. When Gould characterized Ptilotis cockerelli in the 'Annals & Magazine of Natural History' in 1869, he remarked:-- "Although I have placed this beautiful new species in the genus Ptilotis, I am by no means certain that I am correct in so doing, for the bird possesses characters which ally it to at least three genera, namely Stigmatops, Meliphaga, and Ptilotis, while it possesses characters peculiar to itself to demand a distinct generic appellation."  ...  While differing in minor characters from Glycyphila, Meliornis, and Ptilotis, it may be readily distinguished from these and every other genus of the family Meliphagidæ, by the hair-like appearance of the sides of the feathers on the throat and fore-neck. I therefore purpose to distinguish it under the name of Trichodere . . . Type. Ptilotis cockerelli” (North 1912).
Var. Tricodere.
Synon. Hemiptilotis.
