New World Warblers (Parulidae)
Three-striped Warbler (Basileuterus tristriatus) - HBW 15, p. 795
French: Paruline triligne
German: Dreistreifen-Waldsänger
Spanish: Reinita Cabecilistada
Taxonomy: Myiodioctes tristriatus Tschudi, 1844, valley of Vitoc, Juní.
Affinities within genus uncertain; resembles B. basilicus in head pattern. Proposed race melanotis (described from Costa Rica) is treated as synonym of chitrensis, and perijanus (from Sierra de Perijá, in Venezuela) synonymized with auricularis. Recently described population in Serranía de San Lucas area of Colombian Andes may represent an undescribed race, being brighter and more extensively yellow on underparts than auricularis.
