Bonaparte, Consp. Gen. Av., Vol. I., p. 518, 1850, synonymised 

 Byrseus Reich with Hypoloxias Licht, but carefully noted 

 " ex specimine." 



On p. 19 of the Catal. Coll. Birds Strickland by Salvin 1882 

 there is a footnote to Hypergerus Reichenbach, Av. Syst., pi. liv, 

 1850, which reads " No types whatever are indicated under 

 the generic names introduced in this work of Reichenbach's. 

 But the names of the types were, I believe, communicated by 

 letter to G. R. Gray, and pubhshed by him in his " Catalogue 

 of the Genera and Subgenera of Birds (1855)." 



In view of this statement it is interesting to cite Gray's 

 types of the names recorded by Hartlaub : —
