Rhipidura drownei Mayr View in CoL

Rhipidura drownei Mayr, 1931b: 11 View in CoL (Bougainville Island, Solomon Islands).

Now Rhipidura drownei drownei Mayr, 1931 View in CoL . See Mayr and Diamond, 2001: 392, and del Hoyo et al., 2006: 226.

HOLOTYPE: AMNH 225358 About AMNH , adult male, collected on Bougainville Island , Solomon Islands, on 5 January 1928, by Frederick P. Drowne (no. 155) on the Whitney South Sea Expedition.

COMMENTS: Mayr gave the AMNH number of the holotype in the original description. Paratypes are: AMNH 225350–225357 and 225359–225377. Of these paratypes, the following were exchanged in January 1932: AMNH 225355 to ZMB, AMNH 225359 to Cleveland Museum of Natural History, AMNH 225360 and 225363 to ANSP, AMNH 225364 to CM, AMNH 225369 to USNM, and AMNH 225370 to BBM.

The Whitney Expedition personnel went inland from Kieta and made a base camp at Kupei (ca. 06.15S, 155.27E) from 31 December 1928 to 31 January 1928. From there they collected up to a little over 5000 ft in the Crown Prince Range, with the village of Kobari being the farthest inland village that they contacted (Frederick P. Drowne, unpublished journal Q, AMNH Department of Ornithology Archives).

Mayr and Diamond (2001: 392) considered drownei an allospecies in the superspecies Rhipidura [ spilodera ].
