Abstract

The purpose of this application is to conserve the specific names of two North American tyrant flycatchers (family TYRANNIDAE), Empidonax minima (Baird & Baird, 1843), the least flycatcher, and Contopus pertinax Cabanis & Heine, 1859, the greater peewee. The names are threatened by the virtually unused senior synonyms Platyrhynchuspusillus and Tyrannula musica respectively, both of Swainson (1827).
