Ridgely & Tudor (1994) reported that there are also vocal differences that would support this split. Ridgely & Greenfield (2001) and Hilty (2003) further recognized Venezuelan nigrita as a separate species from O. cinnamomeiventris, as done by Cory & Hellmayr (1927); see Zimmer (1937b) for the rationale for treating them all as conspecific based on plumage pattern, the treatment followed by Fitzpatrick (2004).

Buff-throated Saltator (Saltator maximus). Common bird below 1300 meters – seen at Cock of the Rock Lodge, Villa Carmen, Amazonia Lodge. Klicka et al. (2007) found strong genetic support for a sister relationship between Saltator and core Thraupidae. Sushkin (1924) proposed that Saltator was thraupine, not emberizine/cardinaline. SACC proposal passed to transfer Saltator from Cardinalidae to Incertae Sedis. SACC proposal to transfer to Thraupidae did not pass. Barker et al. (2013) found that Saltator and Saltatricula were embedded in the Thraupidae. SACC proposal passed to transfer to Thraupidae. Chavez et al. (2013) found that relationships within the genus are not consistent with the current linear sequence of species. SACC proposal passed to revise linear sequence.

NEW WORLD WARBLERS
Tropical Parula (Setophaga pitiayumi). Seen at Cock-of-the-rock Lodge.
Three-striped Warbler (Basileuterus tristriatus). Seen at Tanager Corner to Thousand-meter Bridge (1100-1300m) (Manu road) and Cock- of-the-rock Lodge. Gutiérrez-Pinto et al (2012) found that broadly defined Basileuterus tristriatus consists of 10 distinct clades, one of which is B. trifasciatus, which is the sister group to B. tristriatus tacarcunae of the Darién. Donegan (2014) provided evidence that the Bolivian punctipectus group (including canens) should be treated as a separate species.
Citrine Warbler (Myiothlypis luteoviridis). Seen at Upper Temperate Forest (3400-3200m) (Abra Málaga) and Pillahuata area (Manu road).
Pale-legged Warbler (Myiothlypis signata). Seen near Wayquecha (Manu road).

Two-banded Warbler (Myiothlypis bivittata). Seen at Tanager Corner to Thousand-meter Bridge (1100-1300m) (Manu road) and Cock- of-the-rock Lodge.
Cuzco Warbler (Myiothlypis chrysogaster). Seen at Tanager Corner to Thousand-meter Bridge (1100-1300m) (Manu road), Quita Calzones bridge and Villa Carmen Biological Station. Ridgely & Greenfield (2001) treated the northern subspecies chlorophrys as a separate species – Choco Warbler - from Myiothlypis chrysogaster based on differences in descriptions of songs; see Zimmer (1949) for rationale for considering them sister taxa. This Golden–bellied Warbler becomes a Peruvian endemic. ENDEMIC.

Spectacled Redstart (Myioborus melanocephalus). Common in humid montane forest.

Yellow-rumped Cacique (Cacicus cela). Common in the Amazon.
Mountain Cacique (Cacicus chrysonotus). Seen at Acjanaco pass to Wayquecha (Manu road) and Pillahuata area (Manu road). The northern (leucoramphus) and southern (chrysonotus) groups of subspecies were treated as separate species by Blake (1968b), but most classifications have treated them as a single species (e.g., Hellmayr 1937, Meyer de Schauensee 1966, 1970, Ridgely & Tudor 1989, Fjeldså & Krabbe 1990; and usually as Cacicus leucoramphus, an error, because chrysonotus has priority) because specimens near the contact zone show some signs of gene flow (Hellmayr 1937, Bond 1953). However, see Jaramillo & Burke (1999) for possible reasons for ranking them as species; this was followed by Ridgely & Greenfield (2001), Hilty (2003), and Fraga (2011). Powell et al. (2014) found that the two were deeply divergent genetically, more so than some Cacicus treated as species, but did not sample populations anywhere near the contact zone. SACC proposal to treat leucoramphus as a separate species did not pass. Hosner et al. (2015b) found evidence for intergradation between the taxa in Ayacucho, Peru.
