DEFINITIONS

MALIMBUS
(Ploceidae; Ϯ Crested Malimbe M. malimbicus) Malimbe or Malimba, Portuguese Congo (= Malembo, Cabinda enclave, Angola); "LE MALIMBE HUPPÉ ... LE MALIMBE, Buffon, édition de Sonnini. Malimbus cristatus.  ON trouve ce bel oiseau dans le royaume de Congo, situé sur la côte occidentale de l'Afrique; mais il n'habite que dans le temps de ses amours la contrée de Malimbe, dont M. Sonnini lui a imposé le nom.  ...  Ces oiseaux arrivent à Malimbe vers les mois d'octobre et de novembre, y font leur ponte, n'y séjournent que dans la saison de la maturité des figues, et n'y reviennent qu'à la même époque de l'année suivante." (Vieillot 1805); "Malimbus Vieillot, 1805, Ois. Chant., p. 71. Type, by monotypy, Malimbus cristatus Vieillot = Tanagra malimbica Daudin." (Moreau in Peters 1962, XV, 57); "MALIMBUS Vieillot, 1805  M - Malimbus cristatus Vieillot, 1805; type by monotypy and virtual tautonymy = Tanagra malimbica Daudin, 1802." (Dickinson & Christidis (eds.) 2014, 289) (see manimbe). Recent work indicates that this genus should also include the African and Malagasy members of Ploceus.
