Phyllopneuste orientalis Brehm, 1855: 232 (Wady Halfa bei Nubien).

Now Phylloscopus orientalis ( Brehm, 1855) View in CoL . See Hartert, 1918a: 29, Helbig et al., 1995, and Urban et al., 1997: 359.

HOLOTYPE: AMNH 455169 About AMNH , adult female, collected at Wadi Halfa , 21.55N, 31.20E (Times Atlas), Sudan, on 3 April 1850, by Oskar Brehm. From the Rothschild Collection. GoogleMaps

COMMENTS: AMNH 455169 is the only Brehm specimen that came to AMNH bearing the type locality ‘‘Wadi Halfa’’. Should another Brehm specimen from that locality be found, then the AMNH specimen would be the lectotype designated by Hartert (1918a: 29).

Recent mitochondrial DNA studies ( Helbig et al., 1995) indicated that the two members of the Bonelli’s Warbler complex, P. bonelli (Vieillot, 1819) and P. orientalis ( Brehm, 1855) , should have full species status.
