Cordillera
do
Mérida
,
1600 m
, western
Venezuela
, on
20 February 1897
, by Salamon Briceño. From the Rothschild Collection.
COMMENTS:
In
the original description,
Lowe
said that he had examined
19 specimens
from the mountainous district of
Mérida
, all of which were in the Rothschild Collection. His type of
montana
was the only specimen bearing the date
20 February 1897
. The
18 paratypes
are:
AMNH 507911–507926
, seven males, two females, seven unsexed, all collected by
Briceño
;
AMNH 507932
,
507933
, unsexed, from the Boucard Collection. There are five additional Rothschild specimens from
Mérida
, apparently collected by
Mocquerys. There
is no information on when Rothschild obtained them, but they were not examined by Lowe. Salamon Briceño’s name is sometimes written
S. Briceño
G. or
S.B. Gabaldon.
AMNH 100882–100886
were collected by ‘‘
S.B. Gabaldon’
’ but were never part of the
Rothschild Collection
.
