Pteridophora alberti hallstromi Mayr and Gilliard, 1951: 12(forests above Tomba, south slope of Mt. Hagen, Central Highlands, Mandated Territory of New Guinea). Now Pteridophora albertiMeyer, 1894. See Mayr, 1962d: 196; Gilliard, 1969: 184–192; Diamond, 1972: 339–340; Coates, 1990: 484–486; Cracraft, 1992: 29–30; Frith and Beehler, 1998: 305–314; and Frith and Frith, 2009b: 473.
HOLOTYPE: AMNH 348210, female, collected above Tomba, 05.47S, 143.58E( Frith and Beehler, 1998: 571), Base Camp, 8200 ft, south slope of Mount Hagen, Western Highlands Province, Papua New Guinea(formerly Central Highlands, Mandated Territory of NewGuinea).
COMMENTS: The AMNH number of the holotypewas cited in the original description. When hallstromiwas named, two additional subspecies of P. albertihad been described. Because only females were known of P. a. buergersi, females of that subspecies, nominate alberti, and hallstromiwere compared and a female holotypeselected. Differences between males of nominate albertiand hallstromiwere also noted. Paratypesof hallstromi, all collected in 1950, are: Nondugl, AMNH 705631–705638, two adult males, four immature males, one juvenile male, one female, AMNH 802658, sex?, 8 March–15 May; Kubor Mountains, AMNH 705639–705642, 709647, 788308, two adult males, two immature males, two females, 21– 30 May; Base Camp, Mount Hagen, AMNH 705648–705655, 705655bis, 705656–705660, 788309, 802656, 802657, six adult males, six immature males, one juvenile male, four females, 29 June–27 July; Mount Wilhelm, AMNH 705661bis, adult male, 11 June. Of these, AMNH 705634 and 705654 were sent to AM in 1953; and AMNH 705649 and 705660 were exchanged with FMNH in the 1960s. Most recent authors consider Pteridophora albertimonotypic.
