[ Zosterops palpebrosa iriomotensis Kuroda ]

Zosterops japonica iriomotensis Kuroda, 1923a: 88 (Sonai, Iriomote Island, Yayeyama Islands, S. Riu Kiu Group).

Now Zosterops japonicus loochooensis Tristram, 1889 View in CoL . See Morioka et al., 2005: 54.

COMMENTS: Morioka et al. (2005: 53–54) noted that the holotype of iriomotensis was almost certainly lost in World War II and listed identification data for paratypes. AMNH has a paratype of this form, AMNH 699842, adult male, collected at Sonai, 24.23N, 123.45E ( Morioka et al., 2005: 153), Iriomote-Jima Island, Yayeyama Islands, Ryukyu Islands, Japan, on 4 November 1921, collected by H. Orii (no. 375), Kuroda no. 6206. The subspecies iriomotensis is now considered a synonym of Zosterops japonicus loochooensis . This specimen has been placed with the type specimens at AMNH with a label to explain its status as a paratype.
