Nomenclatural and taxonomic status of bird taxa (Aves) described by an ornithological swindler, Josef Prokop Pražák (1870 – 1904) Author Mlíkovský, Jiří text Zootaxa 2011 3005 45 68 journal article 10.5281/zenodo.202788 37c1b93e-9c92-45e1-a140-5fe4810c5b16 1175-5326 202788 Accentor modularis sclateri Pražák Accentor modularis sclateri Pražák, 1896f : 189 . Remarks. Pražák (1896f: 189) based this form on “sehr lichte britische Vögel (“very pale British birds). As noted by Hartert (1910: 773) , British birds are darker than those from continental Europe. This strongly indicates that Pražák did not base A. m. sclateri on actual specimen material. In absence of any evidence that Pražák based this form on existing specimens or on published data, I treat Accentor modularis sclateri Pražák, 1896f , as a name for a hypothetical form, which has no standing in zoological nomenclature (Art. 11.3.1 of the Code).
