Philemon citreogularis papuensis Mayr and Rand View in CoL

Philemon citreogularis papuensis Mayr and Rand, 1935: 15 View in CoL (Dogwa, Oriomo River, Territory of Papua).

Now Philemon citreogularis papuensis Mayr and Rand, 1935 View in CoL . See Salomonsen, 1967: 406, Mees, 1982: 151–152, Coates, 1990: 251–252, Schodde and Mason, 1999: 288, and Higgins et al., 2008: 684–685.

HOLOTYPE: AMNH 422372 About AMNH , adult female, collected at Dogwa , Oriomo River, Western Province, Papua New Guinea, on 25 February 1934, by Richard Archbold and Austin L. Rand on the 1933–1934 Archbold Expedition (no. 3008).

COMMENTS: The AMNH number of the holotype was cited in the original description, and the type series was said to comprise three male and two female adults. The four paratypes are: AMNH 422368–422370, males, AMNH 422371, female, all collected at Dogwa between 19 and 28 February 1934.

As noted by Mees (1982: 132), Salomonsen (1967: 406) incorrectly cited the name of this subspecies as P. c. papuanus, an error that was repeated by Dickinson (2003: 436). Schodde and Mason (1999: 288) discussed this southern New Guinea subspecies in relation to Australian forms.

Dogwa was about 9 km west by road from the landing on the Oriomo River at Wuroi, 08.50S, 143.07E ( Deignan, 1964a: 234). All of the birds from the 1933–1934 expedition were reported on by Mayr and Rand (1937) and a summary and itinerary provided by Archbold and Rand (1935).
