Description
Anthreptes malacensis iris Parkes, 1971: 44 (Sibutu Island).
Now Anthreptes malacensis iris Parkes, 1971. See Dickinson et al., 1991: 507, and Cheke and Mann, 2008a: 247.
HOLOTYPE: AMNH 685721, adult male, collected on Sibutu Island, 04.46N, 119.29E (Dickinson et al., 1991: 425), Sulu Archipelago, Philippines, in July 1893, by Alfred Everett. From the Rothschild Collection.
COMMENTS: Parkes cited the AMNH number of the holotype in the original description and said that he had three specimens of iris from Sibutu. The two paratypes are: AMNH 685722, female, and AMNH 685723, unsexed, both collected on Sibutu in July 1893.
Everett made a collection of birds in the Sulu Archipelago, including Sibutu Island, in July 1893, as reported on by Sharpe (1894). Sharpe (1894: 240–241) quoted a letter from Everett with information on his stay there and mentioned (on p. 251) that Everett had collected a series of ‘‘ Anthothreptes malaccensis ’’ on Sibutu. There is no indication that the three specimens from Sibutu that came to AMNH with the Rothschild Collection had been in the BMNH, and it is most likely that Rothschild obtained them later, either directly from Everett or from a dealer.
