These temporary numbers were given at WAM to birds and mammals collected by Tunney from 1901 to 1903, prior to their being sent to Hartert for study (R. Johnstone, personal commun.). When the WAM share was returned, they were given permanent WAM catalog numbers. Three-digit numbers on Tunney’s labels are his field numbers. In the subsequent original description of

AMNH 265501 was exchanged to AMNH by Rothschild in 1928. AMNH 598134 and 598137 were part of the Mathews Collection; they were collected by Tunney at the same time and were part of the series on which Hartert based his description. Mathews later obtained these specimens from WAM, where they had received permanent WAM numbers (see
