Ptilotis finschi Rothschild and Hartert View in CoL

Ptilotis finschi Rothschild and Hartert, 1903b: 448 View in CoL (mountains of British New Guinea).

Now Pycnopygius ixoides finschi (Rothschild and Hartert, 1903) View in CoL . See Salomonsen, 1967: 402, Coates, 1990: 273, and Dickinson, 2003: 436.

HOLOTYPE: AMNH 696683 About AMNH , unsexed, collected in the mountains of Papua New Guinea, purchased from the dealers McIlwraith and McEacharn in October 1898, Emil Weiske preparation. From the Rothschild Collection.

COMMENTS: When this form was named, there was a single specimen in the Rothschild Collection, but a specimen in RMNH from Milne Bay was said to be finschi and is a paratype.

Salomonsen (1967: 402) thought that the collecting locality of this specimen might be the Aroa River. Weiske collected on the Aroa River between August 1899 and January 1900; this holotype was received by Rothschild from the dealer in 1898 and could not have been part of that collection.
