Nemosia rosenbergi Rothschild

Nemosia rosenbergi Rothschild, 1897b: 6 (Cachabe´, N. Ecuador, 500 feet).

Now Chrysothlypis salmoni (P.L. Sclater, 1886) . See Hartert, 1898: 483–484, Hartert, 1919: 148, Hellmayr, 1936: 386, and Dickinson, 2003: 815.

HOLOTYPE: AMNH 511216 , adult male, collected at Cachabí , ca. 00.58N, 78.48W ( Paynter, 1993). Esmeraldas, Ecuador, on

13 November 1896, by W.F.H. Rosenberg (no. 28). From the Rothschild Collection.

COMMENTS: In the original description, it seemed that Rothschild had only the single specimen. This was confirmed by Hartert (1898: 483), who figured it in pl. 2, fig. 1 and also suggested that it might be the male of Chrysothlypis salmoni , as did indeed prove to be the case. Keulemans’ plate 2 is reproduced on the cover of this type list. Hartert (1898) reported on Rosenberg’s entire collection from northwestern Ecuador.
