And, for completeness sake; the other two Carmiol birds (even if they´re not commemorated in any Swedish Common Bird name) ...
• Yellow-winged Vireo
Vireo carmioli BAIRD 1866 (
here) a k a Carmiol's Vireo:
I have named it after Mr. Julian Carmiol, who has been so indefatigable in developing the ornithology of Costa Rica.
... and the odd one out (the reason itself, why Martin started this thread):
• the invalid "
Chalybura Carnioli" [
sic] LAWRENCE 1865, (OD in post #1, or
here) [Synonym of
Chalybura urochrysia melanorrhoa SALVIN 1865] ... clearly misspelled, but even so dedicated to Carmiol (
senior):
I have named it in compliment to Mr. Julian Carniol whose large collections sent to the Smithsonian Institution (containing many new species besides this) give evidence of his energy and industry as an explorer.
Also compare with two
attached excerpts, from Deignan (1961).
... which I would say commemorate the German (alt. German-Costa Rican) guy mostly known as;
Julián Carmiol (
1807–1885), a k a
Julian Carnigohl alt.
Julian Garnigohl – whose Original, German name
most likely was
Julian (Julius?)
Carnigohl (
Karnigölch?). In Spanish a k a
Don Julián Carmiol Grasneck (which probably is a result of the tradition of adding
his Mother's Maiden name ... simply to explain
his closest Origin/Heritage/to place
him in context).
Born 1 January 1807, in Berlin, Germany, of unknown Parents, ... first wife Augusta (1811-1850) née
Prössel (as well written either;
Pröessel,
Proessel or even
Preschl!?!) ... emigrated/settled down to/in Costa Rica (as in post #14), ... second marriage, in 1857, with miss Flores (no years) [i.e.
Paula Vicenta Flores García, Daughter of
Manuel Flores and his wife
Rafaela García], resulting in four more Daughters, ... collector for various Museums (Smithsonian, Berlin, London), [he used a long, one-piece wooden blowgun (like the Natives) to catch many birds!], and onwards ... until he died; on the
6th* of October 1885 – at the age of 78.
In my notes (and most of it is included in my MS) I have Carmiol (
Senior) as; Gardener and, continuously (more and more professional) Explorer, Naturalist, Taxidermist, Collector [of various
Naturalia; Birds, Plants, Molluscs, etc., as well as ethnological items (from the Costa Rican Natives/Indians)], also frequent Trader (of ditto) ... and even owner of a minor Restaurant, in San José. A multi-talented guy!
Disclaimer: Note that I haven´t checked Carmiol
Senior as thorough as his Son, this I have to admit, I only looked into Julián's two birds, in hope to be able to find anything on Franz/Francisco. I haven´t dug much further back in history than what´s been written in this thread, this far (simply due to lack of time).
Any additional facts (whatever minor or major, as well as possible corrections) regarding Carmiol
Senior are, of course, warmly welcomed.
The same naturally goes for Carmiol
Junior!
/B
PS.
None of them to confuse with the Costa Rican poet
Señor don Francisco (Julio del So) Carmiol Calvo (of Guadalupe). The latter Carmiol (Calvo) was born in 1910.
