Francolinus View in CoL View at ENA (Pternistes [sic]) leucoparaeus G.A. Fischer & Reichenow, 1884c: 263.

Now: Pternistis afer leucoparaeus (G.A. Fischer & Reichenow, 1884) . See Peters (1934: 86).

Holotype: ZMB 24393 View Materials (B 15730, Fischer no. 247), skin, former mount, female, collected at Kipini, 19.07.[1878].

Type locality: Kipini [Kipini, Tana River County, Kenya], from the original description as well as locality of the holotype .

Remarks: In the original description, no type was chosen, and no inventory number was given. Only one specimen (female) was mentioned, together with a link to Francolinus nudicollis in Fischer & Reichenow (1879). Fischer & Reichenow (1879) listed only one specimen (no. 247), so ZMB 24393 is regarded as the holotype.
