Monarcha cinerascens disjuncta Meise

Monarcha cinerascens disjuncta Meise, 1929: 455 (Kalao tua).

Now Monarcha cinerascens cinerascens (Temminck, 1827) View in CoL . See Mees, 1965: 184–186, White and Bruce, 1986: 368, Filardi and Smith, 2005, and del Hoyo et al., 2006: 303.

HOLOTYPE: AMNH 266554 About AMNH , adult male, collected on Kalaotoa (5 Kalao tua), 07.23S, 121.49E (Times Atlas), Flores Sea, south of Sulawesi Island, Indonesia, on 16 June 1927, by Baron Victor von Plessen (no. 366). GoogleMaps

COMMENTS: In the original description, Meise noted that the holotype was in AMNH and bore Plessen’s no. 366. Half of Plessen’s collection is in ZMB and half was purchased by AMNH. He collected 18 specimens of this form on Djampea , Kalao , Bonerate , Kalaotoa , and Madu islands , and additional specimens of the taxon from Djampea , and Tambora peninsula of Sumbawa Island , collected by others, were noted as being in the Rothschild Collection ( Meise, 1929: 456). Seven paratypes were received with the purchase of Plessen’s collection: AMNH 266548–266553 About AMNH and 266555 ; and four paratypes came to AMNH with the Rothschild Collection : AMNH 652554 About AMNH , Tambora peninsula, and AMNH 652040–652042 About AMNH , Djampea .

Watson et al. (1986c: 502) recognized disjuncta; del Hoyo et al. (2006: 303) accepted the synonymy of disjuncta with nominate cinerascens . Plessen (1929) published a daily account of his expedition.
