Lagonosticta rhodopareia umbriventer van Someren, 1919: 54 (Embu, Kenia).

Now Lagonosticta rubricata congica Sharpe, 1890 View in CoL . See van Someren, 1922: 163; Hartert, 1928: 196; Mayr et al., 1968: 329; Dickinson, 2003: 729; Fry and Keith, 2004: 371–373; Payne, 2010: 341.

HOLOTYPE: AMNH 728829 About AMNH , adult male, collected at Embu, 00.32S, 37.28E (Times atlas), Kenya (5 Kenia), on 9 June 1913. From the V.G.L. van Someren Collection via the Rothschild Collection. GoogleMaps

COMMENTS: In the original description, van Someren said that the type with the above data was in the Rothschild Collection. I did not find other van Someren specimens in AMNH that could be considered paratypes.

Mayr et al. (1968: 329) and Dickinson (2003: 729) synonymized umbriventer with ugandae; Fry and Keith (2004: 371–373) and Payne (2010: 341) further synonymized ugandae with congica.
