Description
Zosterops stenocricotus kasaicus Chapin, 1932: 15 (Luluabourg, Kasai district, Belgian Congo).
Now Zosterops senegalensis kasaicus Chapin, 1932. See Fry et al., 2000: 306–310, and van Balen, 2008: 470–471.
HOLOTYPE: AMNH 258612, adult male, collected at the Mission of St. Joseph, Luluabourg, 05.53S, 22.26E (Times Atlas), Kasai District, Congo (Kinshasa), on 5 December 1925, by R. Callewaert.
COMMENTS: Chapin cited the AMNH number of the holotype in the original description; his type series comprised the six specimens in AMNH collected by Callewaert at Luluabourg, two specimens from Luluabourg in ANSP, and specimens collected by H. Schoutenden at Macaco near Luebo (which Chapin had not seen). The five paratypes in AMNH are: AMNH 258608– 258611, 258613, three males, one unsexed but marked [male], and one female. Other specimens collected by Callewaert at Luluabourg and sold to Rothschild, later came to AMNH at about the time the description was published, but they were not available to Chapin for the description.
