John Kirk Townsend, 1836:
"Parus rufescens., Chestnut-backed Titmouse. Description. Head, throat, and upper part of the breast and back, blackish-brown; back, rump and sides beneath the wings, bright chestnut, with a broad diverging band along the sides of the neck and below, white. Length 4-1/2 inches. Inhabits the forests of the Columbia river. It is nearly allied to P. Hudsonius, but is distinguished by its smaller size and chestnut coloured back."
