Treatment

Calamoherpe crassirostris Brehm, 1855: 235 (im Morgenlande).

Now Acrocephalus scirpaceus scirpaceus (Hermann, 1804) . See Hartert, 1918a: 31, and del Hoyo et al., 2006: 620–621.

LECTOTYPE: AMNH 455439 About AMNH , adult male, collected in Upper Egypt (‘‘Oberegyptan’’, as on label), on 10 May 1850, by Oskar or Alfred Brehm (according to Hartert, 1918a: 31). From the Brehm Collection via the Rothschild Collection.

COMMENTS: In the original description, Brehm did not say how many specimens he had. AMNH 455439 is the only specimen marked crassirostris in Brehm’s hand and was listed as the type ( 5 lectotype) by Hartert (1918a: 31); three additional specimens cataloged as crassirostris are marked gracilirostris and were collected after the above description was published; they have no type status. All of the specimens remain in AMNH.
