Now Euplectes progne delacouri Wolters, 1953 . See Hartert, 1919: 146 ; Wolters, 1953: 32 ; Moreau and Greenway, 1962: 73–74 ; Craig, 1993b: 148– 149 ; Dean, 2000: 320 ; Dickinson, 2003: 726 ; Fry and Keith, 2004: 246–249 ; and Craig, 2010: 152 . HOLOTYPE : AMNH 727464 , adult male, collected at Bulo-Bulo (= Bulu-Bulu), 12.05S , 17.37E ( Dean, 2000: 370 ), Bié (= Bihe´), Angola , on 3 October 1904 , by W.J. Ansorge (no. x169). From the Rothschild Collection. COMMENTS: In the original description Neumann listed the type of ansorgei as a Rothschild specimen, male, collected by Ansorge at Bulu-Bulu on 3 October 1904 ; four such specimens came to AMNH with the Rothschild Collection , but Neumann had himself marked Ansorge’s specimen no. x169 as ‘‘Typus.’’ Hartert (1919: 146) confirmed this specimen as the type of ansorgei . Neumann gave the range as Angola and Benguela . Paratypes are: Bulo-Bulo , Bie´ , AMNH 727465–727467 , males, 3 October 1904 , collected by Ansorge (nos. x168, x165, x167, respectively) ; Canduc , Benguela , AMNH 727468 , 727469 , males, 5 January 1906 , collected by Ansorge (nos. 20, 19, respectively) . When this form is included in Euplectes , the name ansorgei is preoccupied by Euplectes (= Pyromelana ) ansorgei Hartert, 1899 . Wolters (1953: 32) provided Euplectes progne delacouri as a replacement name. The two names share the same type .
