Myrmecocichla leucolaema G.A. Fischer & Reichenow, 1880b: 181 .
Now: Myrmecocichla arnotti leucolaema (G.A. Fischer & Reichenow, 1880) . See Deignan et al. (1964: 117).
Holotype (missing): one specimen collected in “Nguru-Berge” ( Nguru Mountains).
Type locality: “ Nguru-Berge” [ Nguru Mts, Morogoro Region, Tanzania], from the original description as well as locality of the holotype .
Remarks: In the original description no type was chosen, and there were no inventory numbers for specimens provided, but measurements for one specimen and the locality “Nguru-Berge” (Nguru Mountains.) were given. The whereabouts of this specimen are unknown. It was probably collected for Fischer, as it was cited by him (Fischer 1885: 142), but it was never integrated into the ZMB and ZMH collections. A different specimen, ZMB 27325 [collected by Böhm from Yangzeange (in Usagara) in 1880], is incorrectly labelled as a type for this species, although it does match the morphological characteristics in the description.
