HOLOTYPE
:
AMNH 683262
, [male adult], collected at
Ereğli
,
Turkey
, on
8 May 1908
, by
P. Ürmös. From
the
Rothschild Collection.
COMMENTS: Hartert designated as
type
his only Ürmös specimen collected on
8 May 1908
.
It
bears a
Rothschild
type
label.
Vaurie (1959: 548)
noted that the
type
locality of
persimilis
was in southern
Turkey
; it is probably the Ereğli shown in the Times Atlas at
37.30N
,
34.02E
.
Hartert listed five other specimens that he considered part of his type series. There are
two paratypes
at
AMNH
:
AMNH 683263
, sex given as female by
Hartert
(but the sex symbol on the label is an ambiguous upsidedown male symbol),
Ereğli
,
11 May 1908
,
P. Ürmös
;
and
AMNH 683264
, male, Lenkoran,
2 February 1882

H.H. Slater
