COMMENTS:
In
the original description,
Hartert
did not designate a type, saying only that
Kühn
had sent six specimens.
Hartert (1919: 132)
listed
Kühn’s
specimen no. 3078 as the type, thereby designating it the
lectotype
.
The
five
paralectotypes
are:
Larat Island
,
AMNH 672337
(Kühn’s no. 3078), male,
AMNH 672338–672340
