Remarks.

Drawing in Ahl (1931b: 367, fig. 242). Huebner worked from 1894 to 1913 as a merchant, banker, farmer and administrator and from 1901 to 1903 as Municipal Commissioner of Nairobi in (British) East Africa. He was active in Zanzibar (1894-1896), Mombasa (1896-1899), Nairobi (1899-1905), Kibwezi (1905-1908, together with G. R. O. Scheffler), and Voi (1908-1913), and undertook a journey from Mombasa to Kampala from June to November 1899. In 1913 he travelled to Germany for a convalescent stay because of health problems. However, his already planned return to Kenya was thwarted by the beginning of the First World War. In his spare time he was engaged in nature observations and collected interesting zoological objects, which he sent to ZMB ( Sieberg 1998).
