Muscicapa narcissina jakuschima
Hartert
Muscicapa narcissina jakuschima
Hartert, 1907e: 491
(
Insel
Jaku (Yaku-no-shima, Yakushima)).
Now
Ficedula narcissina owstoni
(Bangs, 1901)
. See
Watson et al., 1986b: 339
, Committee for Check-List of
Japanese Birds, 2000: 230
, and
Morioka et al., 2005: 55
.
HOLOTYPE
:
AMNH 604990
, adult male, collected on
Yakushima
,
30.20N
,
130.30E
(
Morioka et al., 2005: 154
),
Japan
, on
18 October 1904
, by
Japanese
collectors for
Alan Owston
(no. 1064).
From
the Rothschild Collection.
COMMENTS
: Hartert gave the number ‘‘1064’’ for the
holotype
in the original description;
this is Owston’s unique number for this specimen. Hartert also noted that
8 males
and
12 females
were collected. There are now in
AMNH
20 specimens
collected by
Owston’s Japanese
collectors on
Yakushima in September
, October, and
November 1904
, with 11 sexed as males and 9 as females. I consider the
19 specimens
, additional to the
holotype
, to be
paratypes
:
AMNH 604989
and 604991–605008. Hartert apparently counted the males in nonbreeding plumage as females
.
