HOLOTYPE: MNHN-ZO-2010-472 [MNHN A.C. 10100], immature, near Kupang Bay, Kupang, East Nusa Tenggara, West-Timor ( 10°11'0"S ; 123°35'0"E ), between 22 August and 13 November 1801, by Rene Mauge . Pedestal underside: Australie / Cette L. Naturaliste / M. Mauge / Capte Baudin / 10.100 / Philemon = / (illegible) = Philemon buceroides / P. timoriensis SW / (Mull) Type . Pedestal label: Philemon buceroides (Sw.) / Ardea timoriensis (Mull.) Type / Exp. Baudin Timor . Comments. Swainson studied one bird in the MNHN. The Baudin expedition bird represents the only specimen in the MNHN (MNHN Laboratory, ZMO-GalOis 4). The bird which was once in NMS (Dufresne Ms 1818: 87) was not a type and is no longer present (Bob McGowan in litt. ). The type locality is erroneous (New Holland), and therefore corrected and restricted to: West-Timor, near Kupang Bay (article 76a.2.A (ICZN 1999)). Swainson named this species Philemon buceroides or 'resembling a hornbill' ( Jobling 2017 ).
