Now Pachycephala citreogaster rosseliana Hartert, 1898 . See Galbraith, 1956: 203 , Coates, 1990: 209–211 , Dickinson, 2003: 476–477 , and Boles, 2007: 421 . LECTOTYPE : AMNH 658007 , adult male, collected on Yela ( 5 Rossel ) Island, 11.20S , 154.10E ( PNG , 1984), Louisiade Archipelago , Milne Bay Province , Papua New Guinea, on 8 February 1898 , by Albert S. Meek (no. 1405). From the Rothschild Collection. COMMENTS: No type was designated in the original description, nor was a type mentioned in Hartert’s (1899a: 78) report on the entire Rossel Island collection. Hartert (1920a: 448) listed the type as Meek’s specimen no. 1405, thereby designating it the lectotype . The type series comprises only those specimens from the Rothschild Collection collected by Meek on Rossel in 1898. Paralectotypes are: AMNH 658008–658015 , three adult males, one immature male, and four females . Two of these, AMNH 658011 and 658013, have tags initialed by O[tto] F[insch], who apparently compared a male and a female specimen from Meek’s collection with specimens of Pachycephala littayei from the Loyalty Islands . Galbraith (1956: 203) synonymized rosseliana with P. pectoralis collaris ; Coates (1990: 211) and Boles (2007: 421) recognized rosseliana as a subspecies of P. pectoralis ; and Dickinson (2003: 476–477) considered rosseliana a subspecies of P. citreogaster . Pachycephala pectoralis sexuvaria Rothschild
