Cistothorus apolinari Chapman View in CoL

Cistothorus apolinari Chapman, 1914b: 635 View in CoL (Suba

Marshes (alt. 8600 ft.) four miles from Bogota´, Colombia).

Now Cistothorus apolinari Chapman, 1914 View in CoL . See Brewer and MacKay 2001: 123.

HOLOTYPE: AMNH 130590 About AMNH , unsexed adult, collected in the Suba Marshes , 8600 ft, 4 mi from Bogota´, 04°36′N, 74°05′W ( Paynter, 1997: 41), Colombia, on 7 February 1914, by Brother Apolinar Maria. GoogleMaps

COMMENTS: The AMNH number of the type was cited in the original description. Paratypes are two immature birds obtained in 1913, AMNH 121333 and 121334, and two adults in addition to the type, collected in 1914 by Brother Apolinar, AMNH 130589 and 130591. The latter specimen was exchanged to BMNH in 1921. There are oth er topotypical AMNH specimens collected by Briceño in 1915 and 1917, after the description was published.

Cistothorus marianae Scott

Cistothorus marianae Scott, 1888: 188 (Tarpon Springs, Fla.) .

Now Cistothorus palustris marianae Scott, 1888 View in CoL . See Phillips, 1986: 113, and Kroodsma and Verner, 1997: 5.

SYNTYPES: AMNH 30194, adult female, collected at Tarpon Springs, 28°08′N, 82°45′W (Times Atlas), Florida, on 5 January 1888, by W.E.D. Scott (no. 4594), and AMNH 30195, adult male, collected at Tarpon Springs, Florida, on 6 January 1888, by W.E.D. Scott (no. 4595).

COMMENTS: Scott (1888: 188) designated the above two specimens as the types (= syntypes) and noted that he had 14 specimens. Because he designated syntypes, however, the 12 additional specimens, three of which are in AMNH, have no namebearing status. J.A. Allen (in Scott, 1888: 188 footnote) commented that Scott had presented the types to AMNH.
