Subspecies
Possibly not very closely related to others of genus. Wide individual variation, making racial delimitation difficult. Birds from central Magdalena Valley, in Colombia, described as subspecies degener, but differences from innotatus considered insignificant. Designated type locality of Peru falls outwith known range of species, and may require revision.

The following 4 subspecies are recognised:

diversus Ridgway, 1914 - Eastern Nicaragua south to western Panama.
mentalis Cassin, 1860 - Panama and north-western Colombia.
innotatus Todd, 1917 - Northern Colombia.
loricatus (Reichenbach, 1854) - Western Colombia to south-western Ecuador (south to Guayas).
