Some of our more complex, multi-field searches (such as the search field on our homepage and Search All Fields) are currently under repair and may not work as expected.
Thank you to all our users who emailed to alert us to the problem! We hope to have it repaired soon.
Meanwhile, elements of the Advanced Search are working and the Alphabetical Listings are working, too.
Golden-fronted Woodpecker, a bird (see Hunn, attestations); the assumption is that the cuauhtotopotli and the cuauhtotopoctli are the same bird; this may require further research
CUĀUH-TOTOPO-TLI, Golden-fronted Woodpecker (Melanerpes aurifrons) [FC: 46 Quauhtotopotli] “Also its name is quauhchochopitli, and its name is quauhtatala. The bill is pointed, pointed like a nail, strong, rugged, like obsidian. It is light ashen; agile; a tree-climber; a hopper up trees: a borer of holes in trees, a tree-borer. Its food is worms; it destroys insects in trees when it bores them. There it nests.” Martin del Campo identified this bird as the Golden-fronted Woodpecker. The term might equally well refer a dozen other species of Central Mexican woodpeckers, though this species might have been the most familiar to the Aztec scribes.
