' *132. Lanius mexicanus Brehm = Lanius excubit^ mexicanvs. 

 Lanius mexicanus Brehm, Journ. f. Orn. 1854. pp. 145. 148 (Mexiko). 

 Type ; <? ad., Mexico, autumn. 



133. Lanius paradoxus A. E. Brehm = Lanius senator 

 Lanius paradoxus A. E. Brehm, Journ. f. Orn. 1854, p. 75. (No locality stated, hut evidently N.E. 

 Africa.) 



Type: <? ad., Blue Nile, 12. i. 1851. A. E. Brehm leg. On the label in 

 C. L. Brehm's handwriting : " Species rarissima a nobis detecta, differt a cognatis 

 radice caudae alba." ; 



134. Lanius ruficaudus A. E. Brehm = L. cristatvs isabellinus. 

 Lanius ruficaudus A. E. Brehm, Journ. f. Orn. 1857, p. 79 (Blue Nile). 



Type : $ ad., Blue Nile, 31. xii. 1850. E. A. Brehm leg. 



? 135, 136. Lanius gracilis and brachyaros Brehm = L. collurio collurio. 



Lanius gracilis Brehm, Ists, 1842. pp. 665. 680 (Cape of Good Hope) ; Lanius hrachyuros (neo Pallas 

 1776 ! ) id., t.c. p. 665 ; Lanius braehiuros, id., t.o., p. 681 (Cape of Good Hope). 



The probable types are two adult males collected by Krebs at the Cape of 

 Good Hope. The names gracilis and hrachyuros do not appear on the labels, 

 but the specimens agree fairly well with the descriptions and are the only males 

 from South Africa in the collection. 



137. Butalis montana Brehm = Muscicapa striata striata. 

 Butalis montana Brehm, Handb. Naturg. Yog. Deutschl. p. 220 (1831 — " ... die deutschen gebir- 

 gigen Walder "). 



Types : ^ ?., paired, Thiiringer Wald, June. 



This is one of the cases in which an irresponsible person copied old C. L. 

 Brehm's labels, without taking the trouble of fiUing in all details of the old 

 labels. As this is the only pair in the collection named B. montana, I suppose 

 they must be the types. 



138. Sylvia sylvestris Meisner = Phylloscoptis collyhita collybita. 

 Sylvia sylvestris Meisner, Ann. allg. schweiz. Ges. f. Naturw. Bern, 1824, p, 172 (Bern). 



An adult male, labelled : 



" Phyllopneuste sylvestris Meisner, von ihm selbst gesandt, S vere, Bern " 

 is xmdoubtedly one of typical specimens of the author. Cf. Vog. pal. Fauna, 

 p, 501. 



139, Phyllopneuste gracilis Brehm = Phylloscopu» trochilus eversmanni, 

 Phyllopneuste gracilis Brehm, Vogelfang, p. 332 (1856 — " Orient "). 



Type: (J ad., Wadi Haifa, Egypt, 3. iv. 1850. Oskar Brehm leg. Ci. Vog. 

 pal. Fauna, p. 509. , 



*140. Phyllopneuste orientalis Brehm = Phylloscopus bonelli orientalis. 

 Phyllopneuste orientalis Brehm, Vogelfang, p. 232 (1855 — Wadi Haifa in Nubia, Oskar Brehm leg. 

 The page is 232, but in the book it is misprinted " 332 ").
