Criniger gularis balicus

Criniger gularis balicus
Stresemann, 1913: 358
(Gitgit (
Bali
)).
Now
Criniger bres bres
(Lesson, 1832)
. See
Mees, 1996: 45–47
, Dickinson and Dekker, 2002b: 103, and Dickinson et al., 2002b: 129.
HOLOTYPE
:
AMNH 566040
, adult male, collected at
Gitgit
,
2000 ft
,
Bali
,
Indonesia
, on
2 February 1911
, by
E. Stresemann
(no. 222).
From
the
Rothschild Collection.
COMMENTS
: Stresemann’s field number of the
type
was cited in the original description; it might be misinterpreted as 1222, due to a smudge on the field label. Comparison of numbers on other specimens collected at Gitgit shows that the number was correctly cited as 222.
Stresemann’s
Bali
collection went to the Rothschild Museum and he noted (
Stresemann, 1913: 326–327
) that measurements of additional specimens in the Rothschild Collection (collected by Doherty) were included in his account of the birds of
Bali
. In the case of this taxon,
Stresemann (1913: 358)
listed three
Bali
specimens collected by himself, and measurements are given for
six specimens
. Five
Bali
specimens, in addition to the
holotype
, came to AMNH. These
paratypes
are AMNH 566041, and 566042, collected by Stresemann, and AMNH 566043–566045, collected by William Doherty in 1896.
Stresemann (1913: 325)
placed Gitgit ‘‘südlich von Buleleng [
08°06′S
,
115°12′E
, Times Atlas] am Nordhang des Centralgebirges’’.
Sibley and Monroe (1990: 589)
include
bres
in the genus
Alophoixus
. See
Pasquet et al. (2001)
for the results of recent DNA studies.
