[ Emberiza subcalcarata Brehm] Plectrophanes groenlandicus Brehm, 1831: 307 (Grönland) Now Calcarius lapponicus subcalcaratus (Brehm, 1826). See Hartert, 1918: 17, Salomonsen, 1931b: 112–113, Vaurie, 1956b: 24–25, and Dickinson, 2003: 780. LECTOTYPE: AMNH 456317 , adult male, collected in Greenland, in June 1821. From the Brehm Collection via the Rothschild Collection. COMMENTS: Hartert (1918: 17) listed the adult male Brehm specimen collected in Greenland in June 1821 as the type of Plectrophanes groenlandicus , thereby designating it the lectotype. He (Hartert, 1918: 17) further stated that, while no Brehm specimen in the Rothschild Collection was labeled subcalcarata by Brehm, he thought that this specimen from Greenland probably should be considered the type of subcalcarata as well. While this is perhaps true, the type of subcalcarata may well turn up in another collection. There is one paralectotype of groenlandicus in AMNH: AMNH 456316 , female, collected in Greenland in June 1821. AMNH 456315 is also perhaps a paralectotype, but it bears no date. : Published as part of LeCroy, Mary, 2012, Type Specimens Of Birds In The American Museum Of Natural History Part 10.
