Now Gerygone dorsalis kuehni Hartert, 1900 . See Meise, 1931: 369 , and White and Bruce, 1986: 336 . LECTOTYPE : AMNH 607030 , adult male, collected at Kuway , Damar ( 5 Dammer ) Island, 07.07S , 128.40E ( Times Atlas ), Kepulauan Barat Daja ( 5 South-West Islands ), Banda Sea , Indonesia , on 13 October 1898 , by Heinrich Kühn (no. 1065). From the Rothschild Collection. COMMENTS : No type was designated in the original description, but Hartert (1920: 494) listed the above specimen as the type, citing Kühn’s field number, thereby designating it the lectotype . Hartert (1900a: 15) described the male, female, and immature but did not say how many specimens he had. There are now in AMNH nine Damar specimens in addition to the lectotype , collected by Kühn in October–November 1898 ; all are paralectotypes : AMNH 607031, Kuway; AMNH 607032–607038, Wulur; and AMNH 607039, Batoe Merat. Dekker (2003: 70) listed a ‘‘syntype’’ in RMNH, but because Hartert did not say how many specimens he examined, it is not possible to determine whether that specimen was part of his type series.
