Erithacus schlegelii Wahlberg, 1855: 13 .
VERBATIM TYPE LOCALITY: “ Hab. Damara-Land. ”
CURRENT STATUS: Emarginata schlegelii schlegelii (Wahlberg, 1855) ; Muscicapidae ( Dickinson & Christidis 2014: 609)
TYPE MATERIAL: Wahlberg’s (1855: 213) description gives no information on how many specimens he had at hand. From Sundevall’s manuscript catalogues it is apparent that the description was probably based on a single specimen—at least, only one specimen seems to have been sent to Sweden. The holotype, NRM 558942 [11695], is a study skin of an adult male collected 14 August 1854 at the Onanis River .
VERIFIED TYPE LOCALITY: Onanis River , Namibia .
COMMENTS: There is no entry in the journal for this date and place. Wahlberg collected a number of specimens in August 1854. The localities on labels are interspersed with Onanis and Swakop rivers. Specimens collected from 14–19 August are labelled Onanis River, so the TL can be confirmed as correct.
