The unsexed bird from Serra Imeri differs from all the others in 
that it has a pale brown “horn-colored”’ mandible, not a blackish one. 
It seems not unlikely that obscurus and aequatorialis will prove to be 
conspecific with largipennis; in fact, they have been so considered 
by some authors, such as Berlioz, Griscom, and Greenway, although 
Todd, Pinto, and others keep them as specifically distinct.
