SILVERY PIGEON Columba argentina CR View in CoL

Columba argentina Bonaparte, 1857

MZUT AV11391 View Materials ; previously mounted; adult male; Indonesia, Mentawai , Sioban (Sipora Island), 17 July 1894; from the Elio Modigliani collection (no. 244) .

Remarks.—The original label reads Columba grisea (G. R. Gray) , collection no. 244, letter ‘A’ and ‘Oban’ as collecting locality. This specimen was cited as C. grisea in Salvadori (1894) along with six other specimens collected on 17, 19 and 25 July 1894. Carpophaga grisea G. R. Gray, 1844 (not Columba grisea Bonnaterre ) is a nomen nudum; see Peters (1937). Elio Modigliani (1860–1932), anthropologist and zoologist, made three expeditions to Indonesia. During his last journey to the Mentawai Islands, he collected 211 specimens of 34 taxa, some of which were donated to MZUT ( Salvadori 1894, Mazzotti 2011).
