Description
Pitohui nigrescens wandamensis Hartert
Pitohui nigrescens wandamensis Hartert, 1930b: 59 (Wondiwoi).
Now Pitohui nigrescens wandamensis Hartert, 1930. See Dickinson, 2003: 490, Boles, 2007: 435, and Dumbacher et al., 2008.
HOLOTYPE: AMNH 656570, adult female, collected in the Wondiwoi Mountains, inland from Wasior, 02.38S, 134.27E (Times Atlas), on the peninsula that juts out to the east of Wandamen Bay, Papua Province, Indonesia, on 9 July 1928, by Ernst Mayr (no. 1410). From the Rothschild Collection.
COMMENTS: Hartert cited Mayr’s unique field number of the holotype in the original description. He had one additional specimen, paratype AMNH 294178, adult male, collected in the Wondiwoi Mountains on 14 July 1928 by Ernst Mayr (no. 1511). Mayr’s expedition was sponsored jointly by Walter Rothschild and by Leonard C. Sanford for AMNH. The paratype came directly to AMNH and the holotype came in 1932 with the purchase of the Rothschild Collection. See Mayr (1930: 24) for an account of his collecting in the Wondiwoi Mountains.
