Troglodytes troglodytes kabylorum Hartert

Troglodytes troglodytes kabylorum Hartert, 1910a: 780 (Stadt Algier).

Now Troglodytes troglodytes kabylorum Hartert, 1910 .

See Keith et al., 1992: 382, and Brewer and MacKay,

2001: 166.

HOLOTYPE: AMNH 573855 , adult male, collected near Algiers, 36°50′N, 03°00′E (Times Atlas), Algeria, on 25 February 1909, by Walter Rothschild , Ernst Hartert , and Carl Hilgert (no. 8). From the Rothschild Collection.

COMMENTS: In the original description ( Hartert, 1910a: 780), specimen no. 8 was listed as the holotype. Paratypes are AMNH 573855, 573857– 573859, 573868, 573877, and 573878.

Troglodytes troglodytes islandicus Hartert Troglodytes troglodytes islandicus Hartert, 1907f: 25

(Gilsbakki, Iceland).

Now Troglodytes troglodytes islandicus Hartert, 1907 .

See Cramp, 1988: 525, and Brewer and MacKay,

2001: 166.

HOLOTYPE: AMNH 573835 , adult male, collected at Gilsbakki , 64°43′N, 21°02′W (Times Atlas), Iceland, on 13 June 1900, by Henry H. Slater (no. 3690). From the Rothschild Collection.

COMMENTS: Slater’s field number was given in the original description. Hartert (1907f: 25) had before him ‘‘ two males from Iceland’’ when he described this taxon, and he gave the wing measurements as 57.5 and 60 mm. There is only one Rothschild specimen in addition to the type that was collected early enough to have been part of the type series. It is AMNH 573845, collected in October 1902, from the Collection of Henry H. Slater, but unsexed. The wing of this specimen measures 60 mm and that of the type 58 mm, so it was probably considered a male by Hartert because of its larger size and is the paratype.

Troglodytes aedon marianae Scott Troglodytes aedon marianae Scott, 1885: 351 (Las Sierras de Santa Catalina, Pima County, Arizona).

Now Troglodytes aedon parkmanii Audubon, 1839 . See Hellmayr, 1934: 217, Johnson, 1998: 4, and Brewer and MacKay, 2001: 170.

SYNTYPES: AMNH 27506, female, collected on 24 April 1885, and AMNH 27509, male, collected on 23 April 1885, in Pima County, Arizona, by W.E.D. Scott (nos. 2307 and 2284, respectively). COMMENTS: Scott designated the above specimens as ‘‘types’’ (= syntypes) in the original description. While the labels of these specimens give only Pima County as the collecting locality, in the introduction to his article, Scott (1885: 348) noted that all specimens were collected in the ‘‘pine region and neighborhood of Las Sierras de Santa Catalina, Pima County, Arizona’’. Other specimens listed separately are excluded from the type series (ICZN, 1999: 77, Art. 72.4.6).

According to a note on the back of the AMNH label, the female was ‘‘mounted and placed on exhibition Aug. 25, 1891 ’’ and ‘‘dismounted Dec. 31, 1903 ’’.
