Description

Drymoica procerula Sundevall, 1850: 104.

VERBATIM TYPE LOCALITY: “ Caffraria. ”

CURRENT STATUS: Synonym of Cisticola galactotes galactotes (Temminck, 1823); Cisticolidae (Dickinson & Christidis 2014: 457).

TYPE MATERIAL: There is no indication in Sundevall’s original description (1850: 104) that he had more than a single specimen at hand, and there is only a single specimen in Sundevall’s manuscript acquisition catalogue. The description is based on a single holotype: NRM 568774 [6755] (cf. also Gyldenstolpe 1926: 42), a study skin of a juvenile male collected 25 May 1840 in Durban.

VERIFIED TYPE LOCALITY: Durban, KwaZulu-Natal.

COMMENTS: There is no journal entry for this day. Wahlberg was in Durban from late March to early October 1840.
