Treatment

Galerita cristata gallica Brehm, 1858: 208 (Gegend von

Lyon).

Now Galerida cristata cristata (Linnaeus, 1758) . See

Hartert, 1918b: 20, and Cramp, 1988: 145.

LECTOTYPE: AMNH 457758 About AMNH , adult female, collected in the vicinity of Lyon , 45°46′N, 04°50′E (Times Atlas), France, in spring, by Léon Olphe Galliard. From the Brehm Collection via the Rothschild Collection. GoogleMaps

COMMENTS: Although Brehm (1858: 208) had more than one specimen, this is the only specimen of this taxon from this locality that came to AMNH. Hartert (1918b: 20) designated it the lectotype.

Galerida viarum Brehm 1831 (nec 1841) Galerida pagorum Brehm 1841

Galerida viarum Brehm, 1831 (nec 1841): 315 (Westphalen, kommt im Winter auch bei Saalfeld vor).

Galerida pagorum Brehm, 1841 , cols. 123, 128 (Witten in Westphalen).

Now Galerida cristata cristata (Linnaeus, 1758) View in CoL . See Hartert, 1918b: 19, and Cramp, 1988: 145.

LECTOTYPE: AMNH 457730 About AMNH , adult male, collected at Witten, 51°27′N, 07°19′E (Times Atlas), Germany, by F.W.J. Bädecker. From the Brehm Collection via the Rothschild Collection. GoogleMaps

COMMENTS: Hartert (1918b: 19) discussed this specimen and concluded that it should be the type of both Brehm’s Galerida viarum , as described in 1831, and his G. pagorum , as described in 1841, and that his pagorum of 1858 (p. 107) is not the same as his pagorum of 1841.

Brehm (1841: col. 128) mentioned that he had six specimens from Witten sent him by Bädeker; five Witten specimens collected before 1831 came to AMNH with the Brehm Collection. In addition to the above lectotype, AMNH 457731–457734 About AMNH are paralectotypes and were exchanged with ZFMK .
