Chlorocichla centralis
Reichenow, 1887: 74
.
Now
:
Chlorocichla flaviventris centralis
(
Reichenow, 1887
)
.
See
Mayr & Greenway (1960: 262)
.
Holotype
:
ZMB 49.46
(Fischer no. 16), skin, female, collected at Loeru, 05.09.[1885].
Type locality
:
Loeru
[Loeru, southeast of Kondoa,
Dodoma Region
,
Tanzania
], from the original description as well as locality of the
holotype
.
Remarks
: The original description clearly refers to the specimen with Fischer no. 16 collected at Loeru, and measurements for one individual were given. Therefore ZMB 49.46 is the
holotype
for this species.
Other Fischer specimens of this species in the
Berlin
collection (ZMB 24278, ZMB 2000.26491, ZMB 2000.26496) were neither collected at Loeru nor included in the original description, so do not belong to the
type
series.
