Prionochilus inexpectatus Hartert

Prionochilus inexpectatus Hartert, 1895a: 64 (Luzon, Mindoro) .

Now Dicaeum bicolor inexpectatum (Hartert, 1895) . See Salomonsen, 1960b: 24–25, Dickinson et al., 1991: 391, and Cheke and Mann, 2008b: 374–375.

LECTOTYPE: AMNH 698466 , adult male, collected on northern Mindoro , on 30 December 1894, by Alfred Everett. From the Rothschild Collection.

COMMENTS: In the original description, Hartert said that the type of inexpectatus was in the Rothschild Collection and gave the range as ‘‘Luzon, Mindoro,’’ adding that all of the specimens were collected by Everett. Hartert (1920a: 430) listed the single specimen collected by Everett on northern Mindoro on 30 December 1894 as the type of P. inexpectatus , thereby designating it the lecto-

type. This designation effectively restricted the type locality to northern Mindoro, and Parkes (1971: 50) pointed out that Salomonsen (1960b: 24; 1967: 181) was incorrect in listing the type locality as Luzon. There are eight paralectotypes in AMNH: northern Mindoro, 1 December 1894, AMNH 698467, male, AMNH 698468, female, AMNH 698469, female; southern Luzon, no date, AMNH 698470; Laguna de Bai, Luzon, AMNH 698471, male, 10 January 1895, AMNH 698472, male, 9 January 1895, AMNH 698473, male, 9 January 1895, AMNH 698474, female, 11 January 1895.
