On the Paraguayan specimens of Nothura darwinii (Aves: Tinamidae) and Glaucis hirsutus (Aves: Trochilidae) in the collection of the Natural History Museum of Geneva (Switzerland), with a review of South Brazilian reports of the latter

摘要

The identity of specimens in the MHNG identified as possibly the first records of Nothura darwinii and Glaucis hirsutus from Paraguay are clarified. Specimens of N. darwinii are referable to N. maculosa. The specimen of G. hirsutus is correctly identified but lacks basic collection data and hence is considered hypothetical pending further evidence. The status of G. hirsutus in southern Brazil is discussed.
