Now Palmeria dolei (Wilson, 1891) . See Rothschild, 1893e : ix; Rothschild, 1900: 149–150 , pl. 60; Amadon, 1950: 174 ; Greenway, 1968: 95 ; Dickinson, 2003: 759 ; Pratt, 2005: 264–267 ; and Pratt, 2010: 658 . LECTOTYPE : AMNH 453041 , adult male, collected on Maui (5 Mauai) Island, ca. 20.45N , 156.15W , Hawaii , in September 1892 , by Henry Palmer (no. 1764). From the Rothschild Collection. COMMENTS: Rothschild did not designate a type in the original description or indicate how many specimens he examined but gave the range as Maui Island . Hartert (1919a: 171) , by citing Palmer’s unique field number ‘‘1764’’ for the above specimen, designated it the lectotype ; it had been marked ‘‘ Type’ ’ by Rothschild. The following paralectotypes , all collected by Palmer on Maui, are in AMNH : AMNH 453042 ( Palmer no. 1766), male, 26 September 1892 ; AMNH 453043 (1763), male, 26 September 1892 ; AMNH 453044 (1748), male, 16 August 1892 ; AMNH 453045 (1725), immature female, 13 August 1892 ; AMNH 453046 (1726), immature male, 13 August , 1892 ; AMNH 453047 (1746), female, 16 August 1892 ; AMNH 453048 (1747), immature female, 16 August 1892 ; AMNH 453049 (1723), female, 16 August 1892 ; AMNH 453050 (–), unsexed, no date ; AMNH 453051 (1787), male, Olinda , 31 October 1892 ; AMNH 453052 (1790), male, Olinda , 31 October 1892 ; AMNH 453053 (1788), male, Olinda , 31 October 1892 ; AMNH 453054 (1786), female, Olinda , 31 October 1892 . Other specimens may be in BMNH as part of the Rothschld Bequest . Rothschild (1893f: 113) had considered mirabilis a species in the Meliphagidae and had described the genus Palmeria at the same time. He ( Rothschild, 1893e : ix) soon realiz- ed his error and noted that mirabilis was a synonym of Himatione dolei , which should be placed in his genus Palmeria . Wilson and Evans (1890 –1899: 15–16, unnumbered pl.) discussed and illustrated this species. In August and September, Palmer ( Rothschild, 1900 : (Di)) was on the slopes of Mt. Haleakala, 20.43N , 156.10 W (Times atlas).
