Cryptolopha xanthopygia Whitehead, 1893a: 31 (in montibus insulae Palawanensis).

Now Seicercus montis xanthopygius (Whitehead, 1893) View in CoL . See Dickinson et al., 1991: 323.

HOLOTYPE: AMNH 450576 About AMNH , adult female, collected at Blegi , 1500 ft, Palawan Island , Philippines, on 4 August 1887, by John Whitehead (no. 1642). From the Rothschild Collection.

COMMENTS: Whitehead had a single specimen (see Sharpe, 1888a: 199). Blegi was apparently the name of a hill inland from Taguso, 08.49N, 117.53E ( Dickinson et al., 1991: 426), where Whitehead (1890: 39) ‘‘spent a week on a mountain about 2000 feet high. On this hill I collected Cryptolopha montis , but no other mountain species.’’
