[QUOTE="l_raty, post: 3336597, member: 24811"] Bonaparte's "[I]Conspectus systematis avium[/I]" is a complicated issue, as this is how he called his "system", which he updated constantly: he published it again an again, each time in a slightly modified version. Bock cited: [LIST][*]Bonaparte CL. 1849. [I]Conspectus systematis ornithologiae. Editio altera reformata additis synonymis Grayanis.[/I] M. Westerman et Fil, Amsterdam. [INDENT]Not seen by me.
