Remarks : In the original description BMNH 1895.5.1.1328 was chosen as the type specimen and is therefore the holotype . The specimen, which belonged to the private collection of Captain Shelley before being incorporated into the BMNH collection ( Warren & Harrison 1971: 525 ), is identified from its collection data. The collector’s number was added following Fischer & Reichenow (1878b) where the specimen was listed under the name Crateropus kirkii (Sharpe, RB) .
