Thus, in the case of "Orospiza" Bonaparte is again the valid author, though Thomas Horsfield and Frederic Moore were the first to set a type species. As "M. nivalis" was still the only known snowfinch in 1858 when they did this, "Orospiza" is a junior objective synonym of "Montifringilla". For somewhat different reasons, "Orites" is a junior objective synonym of "Montifringilla". First proposed for the long-tailed tit ("Aegithalos caudatus") in Moehring's "Geslachten der Vogelen" in 1758, that widely ignored work was suppressed as a source of taxa by the International Commission on Zoological Nomenclature in 1987. Consequently, later attempts to re-establish that name as a junior synonym of "Aegithalos" are preempted by the erection of "Orites" for the white-winged snowfinch by Eugen von Keyserling and Johann Heinrich Blasius in 1840. Meanwhile, Kaup's "Chionospina" was misspelled "Chionospiza" by George Robert Gray. As it, too, is a junior objective synonym of "Montifringilla", Ludwig Reichenbach's subsequent valid establishment of that name is still inconsequential – except for purely taxonomic purposes, as it makes neither Kaup nor Grey the valid author of "Chionospiza", but Reichenbach. And finally, "Onychostruthus" had to be established because "Onychospiza", Nikolai Przhevalsky's 1876 name for the proposed monotypic genus of the white-rumped snowfinch, was preoccupied. It had been given by Rey to the chestnut-eared bunting (today "Emberiza fucata") in 1872 already, as an unnecessary correction – and thus junior objective synonym – of Bonaparte's original "Onychospina".
