Now Ploceus heuglini Reichenow, 1886 . See Hartert, 1919: 139 ; Moreau and Greenway, 1962: 41 ; Dickinson, 2003: 721 ; Fry and Keith, 2004: 153 ; and Craig, 2010: 162 . HOLOTYPE : AMNH 723598 , adult male, collected at Gassan (= Gassam), 14.54N , 15.16W (Times Atlas ), Senegal , on 29 August 1907 , by F.W. Riggenbach. From the Rothschild Collection. COMMENTS: In the original description, Neumann described only the male, gave data for the type in the Rothschild Museum, and gave the range of the form as ‘‘Upper Guinea, from Senegal to the Niger’’; he did not say how many specimens he examined. The holotype has lost its original label, but the data have been written on the Rothschild type label. When Hartert (1919: 139) listed this type, he also included Riggenbach’s no. 1254, which does not now otherwise appear on the specimen. Only one additional male specimen collected by Riggenbach or from the cited range came to AMNH with the Rothschild Collection : paratype AMNH 723598 , collected at the type locality on 30 August 1907 .
