HOLOTYPE
:
AMNH 728461
, adult male, collected in
South Ankole
, western
Uganda
, on
8 October 1919
.
From
the
V.G.L. van Someren Collection
via the
Rothschild Collection.
COMMENTS: In the original description, van Someren said that the type, in the Rothschild Collection, bore the above data. He did not say how many specimens he examined, but listed his localities as Butiti, Toro and South Ankole. There is one
paratype
in AMNH:
AMNH 728463
, female, collected at Butiti, on
2 October 1910
.
The subspecies
dorsostriata
was included in a separate species
O. gabonensis
by
Dickinson (2003: 731)
and by
Fry and Keith (2004: 386– 388)
, but
Payne (2010: 300–301)
gave reasons for combining
gabonensis
with
atricollis
, pending further study.
Polhill (1988)
gave the coordinates of the Ankole District as ca.
00.30S
,
30.30E
.
