HOLOTYPE
:
AMNH 225174
, adult male, collected on
Bougainville
Island
,
North Solomons Province
,
Papua New Guinea
, on
5 January 1928
, by
Frederick P. Drowne
(no. 141), on the
Whitney
South Sea Expedition.
COMMENTS
: The AMNH number of the
holotype
was cited in the original description. Mayr (1936: 17) gave measurements of
12 males
and
3 females
, but there were
23 specimens
in the type series. The
22 paratypes
are: AMNH 225169–225173 and 225175– 225191. AMNH 225169 was exchanged with ZMB in
July 1936
.
The Whitney Expedition personnel were camped near the village of Kupei, ca.
06.15S
,
155.27E
, inland from Arawa Bay. The altitude at the camp was only about
2300 ft
, but a trail led from the camp to the top of the ridge at
5200 ft
(unpublished journals of Hannibal Hamlin and Frederick Drowne, Archives, Dept. of Ornithology, AMNH).
