CHĪL-TOTOPIL, literally, “little red bird,” Red Warbler (Ergaticus ruber) [FC: 48 Chiltotopil] “It is the same as the [Tlapaltototl]…. It has no blood; its blood is only like serous fluid.” This description is opaque, but might be intended to suggest small size. Martin del Campo identified it as the Red Warbler. The Historia General, Martin del Campo’s source, elaborated to the effect that Chiltototl was red like Tlapaltototl, which Martin del Campo identified as the Vermilion Flycatcher (Pyrocephalus ruber). Both are conspicuously bright, if diminutive, red birds. I agree that this bird is most likely the Red Warbler. Fr.
