Now Ploceus superciliosus (Shelley, 1873) . See Hartert, 1919: 139 ; Moreau and Greenway, 1962: 52 ; Dickinson, 2003: 722 ; Fry and Keith, 2004: 196–198 ; Ash and Atkins, 2009: 341 ; and Craig, 2010: 158 . HOLOTYPE : AMNH 724347 , female, collected on the Omo River between Malo and Koscha , southern Ethiopia , on 18 February 1901 , by Oscar Neumann (no. 851). From the Rothschild Collection. COMMENTS: Neumann’s description was based on the single female specimen collected between Malo, 06.33N , 36.37E ( Ash and Atkins, 2009: 416 ) and Koscha, 06.45N , 36.35E ( Ash and Atkins, 2009: 415 ). The area is shown on the map in Neumann (1902b) ; Koscha is there spelled Kucha. The generic affiliations of superciliosus are not settled. Moreau and Greenway (1962: 52) , Dickinson (2003: 722) , and Ash and Atkins (2009: 341) place it in Ploceus ; Fry and Keith (2004: 196) and Craig (2010: 158) retain it in Pachyphantes , the last commenting that recent DNA studies indicate that it may be closest to the genus Amblyospiza .
