John)
Waterstradt
(no. W. 302.a).
From
the Rothschild Collection.
COMMENTS: Hartert cited Waterstradt’s field number of the
holotype
in the original description; both male and female were described. The number of specimens was not given, but
Hartert (1920a: 430)
recorded that Waterstradt had sent
13 specimens
from Mt. Apo, some of them young.
Hartert (1920b: 358)
, said ‘‘John Waterstradt collected not less than
14 specimens
…’’ Fourteen specimens came to AMNH. The
13 paratypes
are: Mt. Apo,
October and November 1903
,
3 males
and
10 females
,
AMNH 698358
,
AMNH 698359
,
AMNH 698361–698371
. I did not find AMNH
698363 in
the collection, and it was perhaps exchanged to another institution without having been marked in the catalog. AMNH 698364 is the specimen illustrated in
Hartert (1920b: 358
and pl. VI).
