Arizelocichla neumanni Hartert

Arizelocichla neumanni Hartert, 1922c: 50 (Uluguru Mts.) .

Now Andropadus tephrolaemus neumanni (Hartert, 1922) . See Keith et al., 1992: 283.

HOLOTYPE: AMNH 566440 , adult male, collected in the Uluguru Mountains , 06°50′S, 37°45′E to 07°18′S, 37°40′E ( Chapin, 1954: 732), Tanzania, on 18 May 1921, by Arthur Loveridge. From the Loveridge Collection (no. R7275 ) via the Rothschild Collection.

COMMENTS: Hartert (1922c:50) stated that the type, bearing the above Loveridge Collection number, was in the Rothschild Collection. This is the only specimen of this taxon that came to AMNH with the Rothschild Collection.

Roy et al. (1998: 61) suggested, on the basis of mitochondrial DNA studies, that neumanni should be considered a subspecies of Andropadus fusciceps .
