Description
Lonchura castaneothorax uropygialis Stresemann and Paludan
Lonchura castaneothorax uropygialis Stresemann and Paludan (in Stresemann et al.), 1934: 43 (Unterer Menoo 300 m).
Now Lonchura castaneothorax uropygialis Stresemann and Paludan, 1934. See Hartert et al., 1936: 191–192; Mayr et al., 1968: 386; Schodde and Mason, 1999: 771–772; Dickinson, 2003: 736; and Payne, 2010: 374.
HOLOTYPE: AMNH 302659, adult male, collected on the Lower Menoo River, 03.50S, 135.25E (USBGN, 1943), Pegunungan Kobowre (5 Weyland Mountains), Papua Province, Indonesia, on 3 August 1931, by Georg Stein (no. 2602).
COMMENTS: In the original description, Stresemann and Paludan gave Stein’s unique field number of the holotype and noted that they had nine specimens. Clara and Georg Stein collected in the Weyland Mountains under the auspices of Rothschild, L.C. Sanford for AMNH, and Stresemann for ZMB. The collection was to have been divided three ways, with types coming to AMNH. Before the study of the specimens was completed, the Rothschild Collection was purchased by AMNH, and later threefourths of the collection came to AMNH (Hartert et al., 1936: 166). Paratypes in AMNH, all collected by Stein: Lower Wanggar River, AMNH 302654–302658, three males, one female, one sex?, 22 July 1931; Lower Menoo River, AMNH 302660, female, 3 August 1931.
Hartert et al. (1936) published on the entire Weyland Mountain collection, and Stein (1933, 1936) reported on the Steins’ stay in the Weylands.
