Coereba flaveola bolivari Zimmer and Phelps

Coereba flaveola bolivari Zimmer and Phelps, 1946: 20 (Ciudad Bolívar, State of Bolívar, Venezuela).

Now Coereba flaveola bolivari Zimmer and Phelps, 1946 . See Lowery and Monroe, 1968: 92; Dickinson, 2003: 776; and Hilty, 2011: 328–329.

HOLOTYPE: AMNH 507901 , adult male, collected at Ciudad Bolívar, 08.08N, 63.33W ( Paynter, 1982), Bolívar, Venezuela, on 30 November 1898, by Samuel M. Klages. From the Rothschild Collection.

COMMENTS: Zimmer and Phelps cited the AMNH number of the holotype in the original description and (on p. 21) listed the specimens they examined. Paratypes in AMNH are: Ciudad Bolívar, AMNH 73611– 73617 , five males, two females, collected by Klages in 1898, AMNH 439917 , female, collected by Cherrie in 1905, AMNH 507900 , immature male, AMNH 507902 , female, collected by Klages (based on handwriting) in 1898 ; Agua Salada de Ciudad Bolívar, AMNH 177935 , male, collected in 1907 by Cherrie. Because all of the above specimens were labeled ‘‘ Coereba flaveola boliviari Z. & P.’’ by Zimmer and because females of boliviari were listed as present in the Phelps Collection, I believe the AMNH females were inadvertently omitted from the list of examined specimens, and I have considered them paratypes. The remainder of the specimens was in the Phelps Collection in Caracas .
