COMMENTS
: In the original description, Brehm gave a wide range for this form but mentioned only a single specimen, ‘‘ein Männchen wurde im
September 1826
bei Kahla an der Saale gefangen’’. A second specimen at AMNH identified in Brehm’s hand as
tenuirostris
was collected long after the description was published. Should anoth- er specimen be found, then
Hartert (1918a: 30)
, by listing the above specimen as the type, designated it the
lectotype
.
