Coereba flaveola bolivari Zimmer and Phelps

Coereba flaveola bolivari Zimmer and Phelps, 1946: 20 (Ciudad Bolívar, State of Bolívar, Venezuela).

Now Coereba flaveola bolivari Zimmer and Phelps, 1946 . See Lowery and Monroe, 1968: 92; Dickinson, 2003: 776; and Hilty, 2011: 328–329.

HOLOTYPE: AMNH 507901, adult male, collected at Ciudad Bolívar, 08.08N, 63.33W (Paynter, 1982), Bolívar, Venezuela, on 30 November 1898, by Samuel M. Klages. From the Rothschild Collection.

COMMENTS: Zimmer and Phelps cited the AMNH number of the holotype in the original description and (on p. 21) listed the specimens they examined. Paratypes in AMNH are: Ciudad Bolívar, AMNH 73611– 73617, five males, two females, collected by Klages in 1898, AMNH 439917, female, collected by Cherrie in 1905, AMNH 507900, immature male, AMNH 507902, female, collected by Klages (based on handwriting) in 1898 ; Agua Salada de Ciudad Bolívar, AMNH 177935, male, collected in 1907 by Cherrie. Because all of the above specimens were labeled ‘‘ Coereba flaveola boliviari Z. & P.’’ by Zimmer and because females of boliviari were listed as present in the Phelps Collection, I believe the AMNH females were inadvertently omitted from the list of examined specimens, and I have considered them paratypes. The remainder of the specimens was in the Phelps Collection in Caracas .
