Corythus splendens C.L. Brehm Corythus splendens C.L. Brehm, 1840: 590 (Nordamerika). Now Pinicola enucleator leucura (P.L.S. Müller, 1776). See Hartert, 1918: 11; Hellmayr, 1938: 257; Dickinson, 2003: 755; and Clement, 2010: 599–600. LECTOTYPE: AMNH 457089 , adult male, collected in North America, in January 1833. From the Brehm Collection via the Rothschild Collection. COMMENTS: Hartert (1918: 11) listed this specimen as the type of Corythus splendens , thereby designating it the lectotype. Hellmayr (1938: 257 fn.) commented: ‘‘ Griscom [1934, Proceedings of the New England Zoological Club 14: 11] restricts leucura, canadensis , and splendens to the larger heavy-billed form, and while this action with respect to the first two names, in the absence of types, may be regarded as final, the proper disposition of C. splendens depends on a critical study of the original example, now in the collection of the American Museum of Natural History, New York.’’ : Published as part of LeCroy, Mary, 2013, Type Specimens Of Birds In The American Museum Of Natural History Part 11.
