Aplonis panayensis gusti Stresemann

Aplonis panayensis gusti Stresemann, 1913b: 375 (Danau Bratan, 3000 f.).

Now Aplonis panayensis gusti Stresemann, 1913 . See Hartert, 1919: 135; Amadon, 1956: 19; 1962a: 84; Dickinson, 2003: 652; and Craig and Feare, 2009: 720.

HOLOTYPE: AMNH 667576, adult male, collected at Danau Bratan, 3000 ft, 08.16S, 115.11E (USBGN, 1955b), Bali, Indonesia, on 21 March 1911, by Erwin Stresemann (no. 328). From the Rothschild Collection.

COMMENTS: Stresemann gave his field number of the holotype in the original description and noted that he had collected four specimens on Bali at Gilgit, Rendang, and Danau Bratan; he gave measurements of seven specimens of gusti on page 376. Also available to Stresemann, but probably not measured is an immature specimen. I have considered the following seven specimens paratypes of gusti: Danau Bratan, AMNH 667575 (Stresemann no. 326), male, 3000 ft, 21 March 1911 ; Gilgit, AMNH 667577 (221), female, 2000 ft, 2 February 1911 ; Rendang, AMNH 667578 (327), female?, 1500 ft, 13 March 1911 ; Bali, AMNH 667579–667582, two males, one immature male, one female, 2000–3000 ft, April 1896, collected by William Doherty. Stresemann (1913b: 325–326) described his collecting localities.
