Garrulus glandarius kleinschmidti Hartert

Glandarius garrulus [sic] fasciatus A.E. Brehm, 1857: 446 (Gebirgen und Wäldern von ganz Spanien).

Garrulus glandarius kleinschmidti Hartert, 1903d: 30 (Süd-Spanien (Sierra Nevada )).

Now Garrulus glandarius fasciatus (A.E. Brehm, 1857) . See Hartert, 1918a: 9; Vaurie, 1959: 137– 138; Blake and Vaurie, 1962: 230; Dickinson, 2003: 508–509; Dickinson et al., 2004c: 88–89; and dos Anjos, 2009: 588–589.

LECTOTYPE of fasciatus and HOLOTYPE of kleinschmidti: AMNH 676445 , adult male, collected in the Sierra Nevada , Spain, on 21 November 1856, by Alfred E. Brehm (no. 182). From the C.L. Brehm Collection via the Rothschild Collection .

COMMENTS: Hartert (1918a: 9) noted that he had been unaware of A.E. Brehm’s prior description of fasciatus when he named kleinschmidti and that his type of the latter name is also ‘‘undoubtedly the type specimen [of fasciatus], it being called on the [C.L. Brehm] label the real fasciatus, and a description added.’’ AMNH 676445 bears the original A.E. Brehm label, a C.L. Brehm label, a Rothschild Museum label, and a Rothschild type label bearing both names. A.E. Brehm’s description of his new form as Glandarius garrulus was undoubtedly a slip of the pen for Garrulus glandarius , as it is correctly written on his own label but overwritten fasciatus by C.L. Brehm.

A.E. Brehm did not designate a type in his original description but listed many Spanish localities from which he had specimens; Hartert’s (1918a: 9) listing of the above specimen as the type of fasciatus designated it the lectotype. Hartert (1903d: 30) designat- ed the same specimen the holotype of kleinschmidti in the original description of that form.

Hartert had an additional male and a female collected by A.E. Brehm in his type series of kleinschmidti and they are paralectotypes of fasciatus and paratypes of kleinschmidti: AMNH 676444, male, AMNH 676446, female, collected in the Sierra Nevada, on 7 November 1856, by A.E. Brehm.
