status

 

Cinnyris Falkensteini G.A. Fischer & Reichenow, 1884a: 56 .

Now: Cinnyris venustus falkensteini G.A. Fischer & Reichenow, 1884a . See Greenway et al. (1967: 250).

Holotype: ZMH 6904 View Materials [Fischer no. 852], male, skin, former mount, collected at “Naiwascha”, 10.06.[18]83.

Type locality: “ Naiwascha-See (Massai)” [ Lake Naivasha , Nakuru County, Kenya], 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 “Naiwascha-See (Massai)” were given. Fischer (1884) listed only one specimen for this species, and so ZMH 6904 is regarded as the holotype. It was also mentioned as the type in Bolau (1898). The species name honors the German collector Julius Falkenstein (1842–1917).
