Taxonomy
The grey-hooded bush tanager was formally described in 1840 by the French ornithologist Frédéric de Lafresnaye from a sample collected near Bogotá in Colombia. He coined the binomial name Arremon rubrirostris.[2][3] The grey-hooded bush tanager is now the only species placed in the genus Cnemoscopus that was introduced in 1919 by the American ornithologists Outram Bangs and Thomas Penard.[4][5] The genus name combines the Ancient Greek knēmos meaning "mountain-slope" with skopos meaning "searcher" or "watcher". The specific epithet rubrirostris combines the Latin ruber meaning "red" with -rostris meaning "billed".[6]
Two subspecies are recognised:[5]
- C. r. rubrirostris (Lafresnaye, 1840 – west Venezuela and north-central Colombia to Ecuador
- C. r. chrysogaster (Taczanowski, 1875) – north Peru to west Bolivia
