COMMENTS:
Hartert (1918a: 14)
, by listing the male collected on
10 December 1826
as the type, designated it the
lectotype
of
saxorum
. It is tied together with a female,
AMNH 456564
, collected on
10 December 1826
, a
paralectotype
, also labeled
saxorum
by Brehm. There are two additional
paralectotypes
in AMNH labeled
saxorum
by Brehm:
AMNH 456566
, female juvenile, and
AMNH 456567
, male juvenile, both collected at Lobeda near Jena, on
10 August 1826
.
Four additional Brehm specimens cataloged as
Petronia petronia petronia
and from Lobeda were exchanged with ZFMK. They may be
paralectotypes
of
macrorhynchos
,
rupestris
, or
saxorum
, depending on how Brehm had labeled them.
