LECTOTYPE
:
AMNH 457445
, adult male, collected in Scandinavia. From the Brehm Collection via the Rothschild Collection.
COMMENTS
:
Brehm (1823: 288)
did not say how many Norwegian specimens he had, but he described both male and female and noted that he had
three specimens
collected in the Thüringian Forest in winter. Later,
Brehm (1856a: 189)
wrote that
septentrionalis
is confined to the Scandinavian peninsula and does not come from
Germany
, as he earlier thought. The above specimen, designated the
lectotype
by
Hartert (1918b: 35)
, is the only Brehm specimen of this taxon in AMNH with a date prior to the publication of the name.
