COMMENTS: Hartert cited Mayr’s field number of the holotype in the original description and said that he had a ‘‘series’’ collected in September and October, giving measurements for four males and three females. Mayr’s fieldwork was jointly sponsored by L.C. Sanford for AMNH and Rothschild ; Hartert studied the entire collection and then sent half to AMNH. The Rothschild half came to AMNH in 1932. The following paratypes, all collected at Ifaar by Mayr in September and October 1928, are in AMNH: AMNH 294409–294411 View Materials , three males, AMNH 294412 View Materials , female, AMNH 721329 View Materials , immature male, AMNH 721330 View Materials , male, AMNH 721331 View Materials , 721332 View Materials , two females.
