Cynchramus pseudo-pyrrhuloides Brehm

Cynchramus pseudo-pyrrhuloides Brehm, 1855: 115 (Triest) .

Now Emberiza schoeniclus schoeniclus (Linnaeus, 1758) . See Hartert, 1918: 17, Vaurie, 1956a, and Dickinson, 2003: 780.

LECTOTYPE: AMNH 456164 , adult male, collected at Trieste , 45.39N, 13.47E (Times Atlas), Italy, on 19 October 1829. From the Brehm Collection via the Rothschild Collection.

COMMENTS: In the original description, Brehm said that this form lived at Trieste but gave no indication of how many specimens he examined. Hartert (1918: 17) listed the male, labeled pseudo-pyrrhuloides by Brehm and collected at Trieste on 19 October 1829 as the type, thereby designating it the lectotype. There are two paralectotypes in AMNH, both collected at Trieste and labeled pseudo-pyrrhuloides by Brehm: AMNH 456165, male, 10 October 1829, and AMNH 456166, female, 19 October 1829.
