Townes described this color variant as the subspecies
ochreata
. Four subspecies were recognized,
grallator
in most of the North American range and westward to Colorado,
balteata
in southern Texas,
xutha
in Colorado and New Mexico,
ochreata
in Arizona, and
lutea
on the California border of Arizona. Some of these were known from only a few specimens. In the 1979 catalog, I concluded that the geographic variation of
grallator
does not seem conducive to the recognition of subspecies.
