Now Ploceus subaureus aureoflavus Smith, 1839 . See Hartert, 1907a: 499–500 ; Hartert, 1919: 140 ; Moreau and Greenway, 1962: 40 ; Dickinson, 2003: 720 ; Fry and Keith, 2004: 126–127 ; and Craig, 2010: 161 . HOLOTYPE : AMNH 724738 , unsexed [adult male], collected at Mtoni, 06.52S , 39.16E , lower reaches of the Ruvu River (= Kingani River) ( Polhill, 1988 ), Tanzania , in January (year not recorded), by F. Bohndorff. From the Rothschild Collection. COMMENTS: In the original description, Hartlaub described a single male from Mtoni. Hartert (1907a: 500) listed a male and a female from Mtoni, which are now in AMNH, but the female was not mentioned in the original description. Most type specimens of names introduced by Hartlaub are in UMB; Sánchez-Osés (2010: 67) noted that the type of P. holoxanthus was not found there but he thought that it might be in ZMB ; Rothschild obtained specimens from many collections, but there is no indication that this one came from ZMB; he probably received it directly from Hartlaub.
