Aust. Mus. 20(2): 117. ( 27 August 1937 ). Common name . White-striped Dorcopsis . Current name . Dorcopsis hageni Heller, 1897 ; following Groves (2005d) . Holotype . M.6211 by original designation. Male adult, study skin, skull and skeleton, body originally in alc. “with trunk removed” ( Troughton, 1937a: 118 ), collected during 1936 by Mr A. J. Marshall; registered September 1936 . Condition . Cranium is extensively damaged, with numerous small bone fragments and most of the teeth retained in the skull box. Detached from the cranium are: most of the rostrum, the entire area of the right tooth row; posterior ends of both zygomatic arches; the floor and most of the right side of the braincase. Both dentaries are broken in two near the premolars: left dentary missing coronoid process, right dentary has detached coronoid and condylar processes. Whole study skin: small holes on the dorsal side of the snout, multiple small holes on the ventral surface, some holes (stitched up) on the limbs, sparse fur on the ventral side. Although labelled “adult”, it is likely to be a younger animal based on unerupted permanent premolars Type locality . “Eitape” [= Aitape] district, [West] Sepik Province , Papua New Guinea . Paratype . M.6098 by original designation. Subadult female, skull, study skin, same locality and collector as holotype , registered in May 1936 . Comments . Registration numbers of holotype and one paratype indicated by Troughton, but the number of specimens in type series was not given. The smashed skull is not mentioned in the original description but the limited cranial and dental dimensions given in Troughton’s account are consistent with the current damaged state of the cranium. An additional specimen listed in the register, M.6212, female with juvenile, from the type locality and registered in September 1936 , is possibly a paratype but the specimen has not been located during this study or sighted in recent inventories. Troughton gives the type locality as “Eitape, Territory of New Guinea ”, which appears to be an initial alternate spelling, as the register entry of the locality for both the holotype and paratype M.6098 is “Aitape, Sepik Division, Territory of New Guinea ”.
