[ Meliphaga lombokia Mathews View in CoL ]

This name was proposed by Mathews (1926: 60) as a ‘‘new name’’ for Ptilotis virescens Wallace, 1864 (then included in Meliphaga ), not Melithreptus virescens Vieillot, 1817 (5 Meliphaga virescens ). Wallace (1864: 494) did not designate a type, so Mathews’ name would apply to Wallace’s original type series (see Warren and Harrison, 1971: 585). See Duncan (1937: 72) for date of publication of Wallace’s name as 1864. Now Lichmera lombokia ( Mathews, 1926) . See Higgins et al. (2008: 660).
