Treatment

Curruca luctuosa Brehm, 1855: 229 (In Dalmatien) .

Now Sylvia melanocephala melanocephala (Gmelin, 1789) View in CoL . See Hartert, 1918a: 32, and Shirihai et al., 2001: 403–413.

LECTOTYPE: AMNH 455649 About AMNH , adult male, collected in Dalmatia , Croatia, on 12 May 1829. From the Brehm Collection via the Rothschild Collection.

COMMENTS: Hartert (1918a: 32) listed this specimen the type of luctuosa , thereby designating it the lectotype; it is labeled luctuosa by Brehm. I did not find other specimens so labeled; a second specimen from Dalmatia, AMNH 455650 About AMNH , was labeled longirostris by Brehm. I do not consider it a paralectotype .
