Salvadori ... German knowledge desired (1 Viewer)

Does anyone who does know German (better than I) understand this quote?
"Der vortragende legt ferner das bisher unbekannte Männchen von Cryptospiza reiehenowi vor, welches durch eine rothe Maske ausgezeichnet ist. Durch diese Entdeckung wird der Beweis geliefert, dass die in Schoa vorkommende, von Prof. SALVADORI auf die vorgenannte Art bezogene Cryptospiza (vergl, Ann. Genova 1884 S. 180) einer verschiedenen species angehört, welche durch einfarbig olivenbraune Kopfseiten und gelbbräunliche Kehle von der Kamerunform sich unterscheidet. Der Vortragende schlägt für den Schoa-Vogel den Namen Cryptospiza salvadorii Rchw. vor."

If so; please check out (and if so, please, reply on) thread: http://www.birdforum.net/showthread.php?t=272343

Cheers!
 
The lecturer presents the hitherto unknown male of Cryptospiza reiehenowi, which is characterized by a red mask. This discovery proofs that the species occuring in Schoa (which professor Salvadori assigns to Cryptospiza reiehenowi) is in fact a different species, distinguished from the form from Cameroon by the unform olive-brown side of head and the yellow-brown throat. The lecturer proposes the name Cryptospiza salvadorii Rchw. for the birds from Schoa.

Thanks ... rearrangement, cross-reference and closure

Many thanks, André!

I hope its OK with you that I add this your helpful translation to the thread: "Tommaso Salvadori in some of "his" many birds … in various languages" http://www.birdforum.net/showthread.php?t=272343

Because there are more issues to solve regarding Salvadori and "his" birds!?

But so far, mission accomplished, German text solved .. Now let´s continue on the former thread (just to avoid having to deal with the same topic on two different places).

See you all there!
