Pachycephala pectoralis ornata Mayr
Pachycephala pectoralis ornata Mayr, 1932b: 8 (Santa Cruz, Santa Cruz Islands) .
Now Pachycephala vitiensis ornata Mayr, 1932 View in CoL . See Galbraith, 1956: 204, Mayr, 1967: 29, Dickinson, 2003: 477, and Boles, 2007: 421.
HOLOTYPE: AMNH 218022 View Materials , adult male, collected on Nendo (5 Santa Cruz) Island, 10.45S, 165.54E ( USBGN, 1974), Santa Cruz Islands, Solomon Islands, on 24 February 1927, by Frederick P. Drowne on the Whitney South Sea Expedition (no. 21774). GoogleMaps
COMMENTS: Mayr cited the AMNH number of the holotype in the original description and gave as the range of ornata the Northern Santa Cruz Group : Santa Cruz I., Nupani (5 Nepani ) in the Swallow Islands , Lomlom and Fenualoa in the Reef Islands , and Treasurers Island and Disappointment Island in the Duff Islands. Paratypes are: Santa Cruz I., AMNH 214265 View Materials , 214293–214296 View Materials , 218020 View Materials , 218021 View Materials , 218023–218043 View Materials , 224017 View Materials , 224028 View Materials ; Nupani I., AMNH 214339 View Materials , 214340 View Materials , 215971 View Materials , 215972 View Materials , 216056–215058 View Materials ; Lomlom I., AMNH 214341–214357 View Materials , 215962–215969 View Materials , 216049– 216055 View Materials ; Fenualoa I., AMNH 214358 View Materials , 215970 View Materials , 216059 View Materials ; Treasurers I., AMNH 214359–214362 View Materials , 214388 View Materials , 214389 View Materials , 215955– 215959 View Materials , 216042–216048 View Materials ; and Taumako I. (5 Disappointment I.), AMNH 214363–214387 View Materials , 215960 View Materials , 215961 View Materials , 216040 View Materials , 216041 View Materials , 224020 View Materials , and 224021. Of these paratypes, AMNH 214356 View Materials , 215964 View Materials , and 218030 were exchanged to ZMB in July 1936 ; AMNH 214366 View Materials and 214388 were exchanged to J. Berlioz in October 1932 and are probably now in MHNP ; AMNH 218020 View Materials was exchanged to BMNH in July 1936. I did not find the following specimens in the collection, and they may have been exchanged to other institutions without the catalog having been marked: AMNH 214346 View Materials ( Lomlom ), AMNH 214368 View Materials , 214370 View Materials , and 214376 (Disappointment) .
On 24 February 1926, the expedition vessel, France, was anchored in a small bay south of Cape Byron (unpublished journals of Beck, vol. D, and Drowne, archives, Department of Ornithology, AMNH). Note Kanenggo (5 Cape Byron) is at 10.41S, 166.05E (USBGN, 1974).
In the original description, Mayr noted that the specimens of ornata appeared to be closely related to Fijian forms. Galbraith (1956: 204), Mayr (1967: 29), and Boles, (2007: 421) placed ornata as a subspecies of P. pectoralis , and Dickinson (2003: 477) included ornata with the Fijian group of populations in the species P. vitiensis .
