DEFINITIONS
VAURIELLA
(Muscicapidae; † White-browed Jungle-flycatcher V. insignis) Dim. after Dr Auguste Jean Charles Vaurie (1906-1975) French/US ornithologist; "GENUS Vauriella Wolters, 1980, XI1 ... 1 Vauriella gen. nov. - "Rhinomyias" goodfellowi, Rh. insignis, Rh. gularis und Rh. albogularis sind von den eigentlichen Rhinomyias-Arten (Typus-Art ist Rh. umbratilis) denkbar verschieden; der Schnabel ist weniger breit, eher drosselartig, der Lauf länger und die Gefiederzeichnung durch ein deutliches, nur bei der aberranten Art albigularis schwach entwikkeltes Supercilium ausgezeichnet. Vaurie (1952, American Museum Novitates, no. 1570) hat auf die Unterschiede dieser Artengruppe gegenüber Rhinomyias s. str. hingewiesen. Eine generische Trennung scheint unbedingt erforderlich zu sein; Rhinomyias ist gegenüber Vauriella wohl sicher die abgeleitete Gruppe. Typus-Art von Vauriella ist Rhinomyias insignis Ogilvie-Grant, 1895, Bull. Brit. Orn. Club, vol. 4, p. 40." (Wolters 1980) (OD per Björn Bergenholtz); "Vauriella Wolters, 1980, Die Vogelarten der Erde, (6), p. 416. Type, by original designation, Rhinomyias insignis Ogilvie-Grant, 1895." (JAJ 2020). This bird and its congeners were formerly included in Rhinomyias, but the genus is now considered to be more closely related to Heinrichia.

● “Hellmayr proposed Automulus roraimae as a new name for Philydor albigularis Salvin and Godman on grounds that it was a homonym of Philydor albogularis Spix ... 1824 ... however under the International Rules albigularis and albogularis are different names” (Peters VII 1951); “Under the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature Art. 58 (8) these two names are homonymous variable spellings and under Arts. 57 and 59 (a) primary homonyms, so Hellmayr was correct and Vaurie was wrong” (Eisennann in Vaurie 1980) (syn. Automolus roraimae).
