Taxonomy
The fulvous shrike-tanager was described by the French polymath
binomial name Tangara fulva in his catalogue of the Planches Enluminées.[4] The fulvous shrike-tanager is now placed in the genus Lanio that was introduced by the French ornithologist Louis Pierre Vieillot in 1816 with the fulvous shrike-tanager as the type species.[5][6][7] The genus name is derived from the shrike genus Lanius that had been introduced by the Swedish naturalist Carl Linnaeus in 1758 in the tenth edition of his Systema Naturae. The specific fulvus is Latin for "tawny", "brown" or "fulvous".[8]
Two subspecies are recognised:[7]
- L. f. peruvianus Carriker, 1934 – west Venezuela, south Colombia, east Ecuador and northeast Peru
- L. f. fulvus (Boddaert, 1783) – southeast Venezuela, the Guianas and north Brazil
