Antioquia Brushfinch

The Antioquia brushfinch is a poorly known species of bird from Colombia. It was scientifically described in 2007 on basis of three museum specimens from Antioquia, Colombia, which were previously mislabelled as slaty brushfinches. The specific epithet blancae refers to the whitish underparts of the new species, while also commemorating the Colombian lepidopterologist Blanca Huertas, the wife of ornithologist Thomas M. Donegan. All three museum skins were collected in the 20th century, but only one label has a date, which is given as 1971. Despite recent research attempts, much of what is known of the species remains preliminary.
