Crateroscelis sanfordi Hartert

Crateroscelis sanfordi Hartert, 1930b: 81 (Wondiwoi) .

Now Crateroscelis robusta sanfordi Hartert, 1930 . See Dickinson, 2003: 445.

HOLOTYPE: AMNH 293893 , adult male, collected in the Wondiwoi Mountains , 02.45S, 134.35E ( USBGN, 1982a), Papua Province, Indonesia, on 14 July 1928, by Ernst Mayr (no. 1521).

COMMENTS: Hartert included Mayr’s unique field number of the holotype in the original description; he listed three males, one female, and two sex?, apparently including the type, although possibly a specimen was sent to MZB. The division of the collection was as for the previous form. There are five paratypes at AMNH: AMNH 293892 , male ; AMNH 293894 , sex ?; AMNH 589365 , male ; AMNH 589366 , male ?; and AMNH 589367 , female .

The Wondiwoi Mountains are on the peninsula east of Wandammen Bay, and Mayr (1930a: 24) entered them from Wasior, 02.38S, 134.27E (Times Atlas).
