Now Motacilla cinerea cinerea Tunstall, 1771 . See Alström and Mild, 2003: 331 . HOLOTYPE : AMNH 569844 , adult male, collected at Esperanza , Tenerife Island , Canary Islands , on 22 March 1901 , by Dr. Curt Floericke (no. 1282). From the Rothschild Collection. COMMENTS : The single specimen from Esperanza was designated the type in the original description. There are three paratypes in AMNH, all from Tenerife: AMNH 569845, male, Laguna , February 1901 , collected by R. von Thanner; AMNH 569846, male, Laguna , 11 March (not April) 1901, collected by C. Floericke (no. 1268); and AMNH 569847, female, Mercedes, 7 January 1901 , collected by C. Floericke (no. 1176). Hartert (1901b: 322) listed two males and two females from the Canary Islands in the Rothschild Collection. This was apparently an error, as the above three males and one female are the only Canary Islands specimens collected at an early enough date to have been part of the type series. Hartert also listed other paratypes in ZFMK and BMNH ( Hartert, 1901b: 322 ). According to Seltzer (1962: 1602) , La Esperanza is now known as El Rosario, 28°27′N , 16°23′W (Times Atlas).
