Palestine ). Now Melanocorypha calandra hebraica Meinertzhagen, 1920 . See Cramp, 1988: 93 . LECTOTYPE : AMNH 555141 , adult male, collected at Jenin , 32°28′N , 35°18′E (Times Atlas), Jordan , on 1 May 1920 , by Colonel Richard Meinertzhagen. From the Rothschild Collection. COMMENTS : In the original description, Meinertzhagen (1920: 21) noted that the type was a male collected at Jenin, north Palestine , on 1 May 1920 and was in the Rothschild Museum. There are two specimens with these data now in AMNH. Because the specimen listed above bears the Rothschild type label, it seems certain that Hartert (1928: 200) intended it to be the lectotype , but because of the ambiguity, I hereby designate AMNH 555141 the lectotype . AMNH 555142, the other male, is the paralectotype . Vaurie (1959: 34) synonymized hebraica with nominate calandra .
