Memo: Hemming (1967) stated:- The taxon represented by the nominal species Eudamus infernus Felder is currently treated subjectively on taxonomic grounds as being the same as that represented by the nominal species Eudamis spilothyrus Felder (R.), 1868 (loc. cit. 18 : 283). As these names are of equal date - having actually been published on the same page of the same volume - the relative precedence to be accorded to them depends on the choice made by the First Reviser. This choice was made in 1927 (Ident. ind. Butts (ed. 1) : 214) by Evans who gave preference to the specific name spilothyrus Felder over the name infernus Felder, sinking the latter as a junior synonym of the former. On the basis of the foregoing synonymy the valid specific name for the taxon here in question is spilothyrus Felder. The higher classification used here follows Lamas (2008).
