Curruca caniceps Brehm

Curruca caniceps Brehm, 1831: 421 (Sie kommt einzeln im April in der hiesigen Gegend vor).

Now Sylvia communis communis Latham, 1787 View in CoL . See Hartert, 1909: 586, and Shirihai et al., 2001: 237, 244–246.

Syntype: AMNH 455601, adult male, collected at Renthendorf, 50.48N, 11.58E (USBGN, 1959), Germany, on 28 June 1830. From the Brehm Collection via the Rothschild Collection.

COMMENTS: Hartert (1918a: 31) considered that Curruca caniceps Brehm and Curruca vidali Brehm had the same types. However, Brehm’s (1831: 421) C. caniceps was a bird or birds collected locally, which he (Brehm, 1857: 455) at some point considered to be a synonym of Sylvia cinerea Bechstein and which is now a synonym of Sylvia communis communis (see Hartert, 1909: 586). A search through the specimens of S. c. communis uncovered a single Renthendorf specimen labeled Curruca caniceps Brm. by Brehm. It has been added to the AMNH type collection.
