Meliphaga Javensis Horsfield, 1821

1821 Transactions of the Linnean Society of London 13: 152.

Now Chloropsis cochinchinensis (J.F. Gmelin, 1789) .

See Dickinson & Christidis, 2014: 280.

Syntype: MHNG 129.056, adult male, collected in Java between 1811 and 1817 by T. Horsfield. Warren & Harrison (1971: 273) treated this name as a nomen nudum, and they did not give the NHM specimen a type status. Because Horsfield provided some “indications” (although less than for the other species), we follow Sherborn who listed this name in his Index Animalium (1927: 3285) .
