Zosterops chlorates oriochares Stresemann, 1938: 45 (Latimodjong Gebirge, 2300 m).

Now Zosterops montanus montanus Bonaparte, 1850 View in CoL . See Mees, 1957: 176–189, White and Bruce, 1986: 413, and van Balen, 2008: 450.

HOLOTYPE: AMNH 461239 About AMNH , adult male, collected in the Latimojong (5 Latimodjong) Mountains, 2300 m, 03.30S, 120.05E ( USBGN, 1982a), Sulawesi Island , Indonesia, on 19 July 1930, by Gerd Heinrich (no. 1075). GoogleMaps

COMMENTS: Stresemann cited Heinrich’s unique field number of the holotype in the original description, noting that he had a large series of specimens from Heinrich, four from NMB and one from SMTD. Heinrich’s 1930 expedition was jointly sponsored by ZMB and Leonard C. Sanford for AMNH. Types were to come to AMNH and the remainder of the specimens was to be divided between the two institutions. Paratypes that came to AMNH are: AMNH 293094– 293126, all collected in the Latimojong Mountains between 1800 and 3000 m, in June and July 1930 by the Heinrich Expedition. These paratypes are stamped with a red ‘‘S’’ within a circle, indicating they were Sanford’s share of the specimens.
