HOLOTYPE: AMNH 665677 View Materials , adult male, collected south of Santa Cruz da Graciosa , 39.06N, 28.01W (Times Atlas ), Graciosa Island, Azores, on 22 April 1903, by W.R. Ogilvie-Grant (no. 446). From the Rothschild Collection. GoogleMaps

COMMENTS: Hartert gave Ogilvie-Grant’s unique field number for the holotype in the original description and listed the islands in the Azores from which he had specimens. The island of Fayal was not listed, and a Santa Cruz occurs on two of the islands, with Flores Island not listed. However, the entire collection was shipped at one time ( Hartert and Ogilvie-Grant, 1905: 91) and was undoubtedly in hand when granti was published in November 1903. Ogilvie-Grant’s expedition was financed by Rothschild and the collection was divided between Rothschild and BMNH ( Hartert and Ogilvie-Grant, 1905: 81). Hartert and Ogilvie-Grant (1905: 127–128) listed the number of specimens of granti collected on each island for a total of 20 specimens. Ten specimens, including the holotype, came to AMNH with the Rothschild Collection; the nine paratypes, all collected in 1903, are: above Rosario, Corvo I., AMNH 665672 (Ogilvie-Grant no. 363), male, 14 April; above Santa Cruz, Flores I., AMNH 665673 (408), male, 17 April; above Horta, Fayal I., AMNH 665674 (672), female, 26 May; above Caes da Pico, Pico I., AMNH 665675 (634), male, 21 May; above Calheta, San Jorge I. (= St. George), AMNH 665676 (568), male, 9 May; Requinho, Terceira I., AMNH 665678 (351), male, 9 April; Lameiro, San Miguel I., AMNH 665679 (108), male, AMNH 665680 (96), female, 9–10 March; Almagrera, Santa Maria I., AMNH 665681 (6), female, 27 February. The remaining paratypes are probably in BMNH.
