COMMENTS:
Everett’s
number, ‘‘6039,’’ of the
holotype
was given in the original description, and the range of
degener
was listed as
Flores
,
Lomblen
, and
Alor islands
.
The
following are
paratypes
: south
Flores
I.,
AMNH 687594
,
687595
, males,
October 1896
;
AMNH 687596
, male,
AMNH 687597
, female,
November
, 1896
;
Lomblen I.
,
AMNH 687598
,
687599
, males,
May
, 1897
;
Alor
I.,
AMNH 687600
, male,
April 1897
,
AMNH 687601
, female,
March 1897
.
Because Everett usually did not provide field numbers for his specimens and because the number ‘‘6039’’ is in a different ink and
hand from his on the label, I think that Hartert added this number to Everett’s label to distinguish the
type
specimen.
