[ Aethopyga seheriae viridicauda Rothschild ]

Rothschild (1921) deposited in BMNH the types based on material collected by George Forrest in Yunnan in 1918–1919. Rothschild’s selected but not designated type of this form was listed by Warren and Harrison (1971: 586) as a syntype. LeCroy and Dickinson (2001: 188) designated BMNH Reg. No. 1921.7. 15.628 the lectotype. Of the four specimens which by that action became paralectotypes, one is in BMNH and three are in AMNH: AMNH 686465–686467. An additional specimen, AMNH 686468, collected by H.H. Harington at Maymyo and noted by Rothschild (1921: 58) as identical to the Yunnan specimens, is also a paralectotype.
