Excluded Generic Name

Leucocirca Swainson, 1838

Type species Muscicapa javanica Sparrman, 1788 = Rhipidura javanica (Sparrman, 1788), by subsequent designation of G.R. Gray (1840), is of a non-Australian species and subgenus; the original designation of Leucocirca laticauda Swainson, 1838 (=Rhipidura leucophrys (Latham, 1802)) in the protologue was conditional, and so invalid: ICdZN Art. 67.5
