Abstract
"The red-winged blackbird (Agelaius phoeniceus (Linnaeus)) populations of Mexico and Central America (except those of northwest Mexico) in which the females have striped breasts are reviewed. Three subspecies are recognized from the Pacific and southern interior regions: A.p. nayaritensis Dickey and Van Rossem, A.p. nelsoni Dickerman, and A.p. grinnelli Howell (including costaricensis Van Rossem). Four subspecies are recognized from the Gulf and Caribbean lowlands: A.p. megapotamus Oberholser, A.p. richmondi Nelson (including matudae Brodkorb and brevirostris Monroe), and A.p. pallidulus Van Tyne and Trautman, with A.p. arthuralleni, from interior Lago Peten Itza, Guatemala, described as new. A map showing ranges and collecting localities is included"--P. [1].
