LECTOTYPE

AMNH 723048
, adult male, collected at
Agoro
(= Agaru, as on label),
03.47N
,
33.02E
(
Chapin, 1954a
),
Uganda
, on
30 April 1881
, by
Emin Bey
(no. 101).
From
the Rothschild Collection.
COMMENTS: In the original description, a male and a female were described, but no type was designated.
Hartlaub (1882c: 322)
, under
Hyphantornis
, described a male, said that he had a second male, and described females, but again did not indicate a type, saying only that he had five specimens from Agaru and thereby restricting the type locality.
Hartert (1919: 138)
, by listing the specimen bearing Emin’s no. 101 as the type, designated it the
lectotype
.
AMNH 723049
, female, Agaru,
1 May 1881
is the only other Rothschild specimen; it is a
paralectotype
of
S. emini
. The name is not listed by Sánchez- Osés (2010).
Hartlaub (1882c
: pl. 1,

) illustrated both male and female, captioned ‘‘
Sycobrotus Emini
