[ Ethelornis magnirostris cobana Mathews ]

Mathews (1926: 40) provided Ethelornis magnirostris cobana as a new name for Zosterops fusca Bernstein, 1865 , preoccupied by Gerygone fusca Gould, 1846 . Then Mathews (1930: 460) incorrectly cited himself as having provided bernsteini instead as the nomen novum as well as giving the incorrect volume number (46 rather than 47) for the publication. I find no indication that he introduced the name bernsteini. A syntype of Zosterops fusca Bernstein and Ethelornis magnirostris cobana Mathews is in RMNH ( Dekker, 2003: 70–71).
