Darrowii

Darrowii is a taxonomic epithet that may refer to several different species, most notably a species of bird or a species of plant. The most commonly cited reference to "Darrowii" in a biological context is *Nesbittittis darrowii*, a species of bird belonging to the family Thraupidae, commonly known as the Ochre-breasted Antpitta. This species is native to the Andes Mountains of South America, specifically found in Peru and Ecuador. It is characterized by its distinctive ochre-colored breast and its elusive nature, inhabiting dense undergrowth.

Another significant use of the epithet "darrowii" is in reference to *Darrowiana darrowii*, a species of flowering plant in the family Asteraceae. This plant is a species of daisy found in the Andes of Peru. It is recognized for its ornamental value and is sometimes cultivated in alpine gardens.

It is important to note that without further context, "darrowii" alone is ambiguous. The specific organism being referenced is usually clarified by the genus or the common name associated with the epithet. The naming of species often honors individuals, and in these cases, the epithet "darrowii" likely pays tribute to a person named Darrow.
