About the Tepui Brushfinch

The tepui brushfinch (Atlapetes personatus) is a species of bird in the family Passerellidae, the New World sparrows. It is found in Brazil, Guyana, and Venezuela. The tepui brushfinch was formally described in 1849 with the binomial Arremon personatus. By the early twentieth century, when multiple subspecies were described, it had been reassigned to its present genus Atlapetes. The tepui brushfinch has these six subspecies: A. p. personatus (Cabanis, 1849) A. p. collaris Chapman, 1939 A. p. duidae Chapman, 1929 A. p. parui Phelps, WH & Phelps, WH Jr, 1950 A. p. paraquensis Phelps, WH & Phelps, WH Jr, 1946 A. p. jugularis Phelps, WH & Phelps, WH Jr, 1955.
