Turdus sanchezorum O'Neill, Lane & Naka, 2011 OD here
Etymology. We take great pleasure in honoring our long-time field companions and friends Manuel Sánchez S. and Marta Chávez de Sánchez. The Sánchezes have worked with JPO, and many other LSU (and non-LSU) researchers, in Peru, Bolivia, and Venezuela since the 1960s and were present for many of the bird discoveries that resulted from those field expeditions. Without Manuel and Marta’s tireless work, good company, and logistical know-how, the LSUMZ South American field program would not have been the success it is.
