Some species in the above list—formerly identified as ‘‘types’’ or ‘‘cotypes’’—are newly identified as holotypes or newly designated as lectotypes.

Two species of Maximilian snakes, long listed as ‘‘types’’ at AMNH, are judged not to qualify and are removed from the list of types for reasons given herein they are Coluber pileatus Wied (AMNH R-2801) and Cophias jararaca Wied (AMNH R-4025).

NOMENCLATURAL UPDATE FOR THE 18TH- CENTURY NAMES USED OR INTRODUCED BY PRINCE MAXIMILIAN

Types are unknown for other species named by Wied , although some may be in European museums. The following list shows the current status of the species named by Wied and also the status of older names applied by Wied to his own specimens; a comma after one of the latter names indicates that the authority for Wied’s use of the name is not its original author. Nomenclatural procedure had not yet been formalized in Wied’s time.
