Now Sturnus vulgaris vulgaris Linnaeus, 1758 View in CoL . See Hartert, 1903d: 42; 1918a: 10; Amadon, 1962a: 107; Dickinson, 2003: 656; and Craig and Feare, 2009: 723–725.

LECTOTYPE: AMNH 665639 About AMNH , adult male, collected at Klagenfurt (= Klagenfurth ), 46.38N, 14.20E (Times Atlas), Austria, on 20 April 1837, by von Hueber. From the Brehm Collection via the Rothschild Collection. GoogleMaps

COMMENTS: In the original description, Brehm named tenuirostris based on specimens sent him from Klagenfurt by von Hueber without designating a type. His label on the lectotype, designated by Hartert (1918a: 10), noted that the male was collected with the female on 20 April 1837. AMNH 665640 , the paralectotype, came to AMNH with the Rothschild Collection and was exchanged to ZFMK.
