HOLOTYPE
:
AMNH 710024
, adult male, collected on
Grand Canary Island
,
Canary Islands
,
Spain
, on
1 May 1905
, by Captain Polatzek. From the Rothschild Collection.
COMMENTS: In the original description, Hartert gave the number of the
holotype
as ‘‘No. 1505, im Rothschildschen Museum.’’ This number had been added to Polatzek’s label and was apparently contrived by Hartert from the date of collection, as the Rothschild specimens were not cataloged. His other specimens do not bear numbers. Hartert gave measurements for four males, however, five males in addition to the
holotype
came to AMNH with the Rothschild Collection and I have considered all of them
