TAXONOMIC SUMMARY OF THE MAXIMILIAN COLLECTION

This section covers three parts: (1) species collected by Prince Maximilian during his Brazilian expedition in the years 1815, 1816, and 1817; (2) primary type specimens still extant in the Maximilian collection; and (3) nomenclatural changes in the collection. Terminology is consistent with the 1999 International Code of Zoological Nomenclature, chapter 6 in Blackwelder (1967), and cited opinions of the International Commission.

The order of species presentation is that of the Beitra¨ge.
