Description

Anthoscopus sharpei Hartert

Anthoscopus sharpei Hartert, 1905b: 75 (Usambiro).

Now Anthoscopus caroli sharpei Hartert, 1905. See Snow, 1967b: 67, Fry et al., 2000: 112–115, and Madge, 2008: 72–73.

HOLOTYPE: AMNH 683337, female, collected at Usambiro, ca. 03.05S, 32.40E (Polhill, 1988), Tanzania, on 8 September 1889, by Emin Pasha (no. 336). From the Rothschild Collection.

COMMENTS: The holotype is the only specimen of this form collected by Emin now in AMNH, and its data agree with those given by Hartert for his type. Hartert (1920a: 441) confirmed its type status by giving Emin’s field number. Snow (1967b: 67) considered sharpei a synonym of the monotypic species Anthoscopus sylviella; Fry et al. (2000: 112–115) and Madge (2008: 72–73) recognized it as a valid subspecies of A. caroli.
