Zosterops montana parkesi duPont

Zosterops montana parkesi duPont, 1971: 4 (Mt. Mantalingajan, Palawan, P.I., 5500–6000’).

Now Zosterops montanus parkesi View in CoL duPont, 1971. See Dickinson et al., 1991: 401, and van Balen, 2008: 450.

HOLOTYPE: AMNH 788888 About AMNH , adult male, collected on Mount Mantalingajan , 5500– 6000 ft, 08.48N, 117.40E ( Dickinson et al., 1991: 421), Palawan Island, Philippines, on 14 April 1962, by D.S. Rabor (no. 34096). GoogleMaps

COMMENTS: The AMNH number of the holotype was cited in the original description. Measurements were given for six males and four females, but the only paratype in AMNH is AMNH 788887, unsexed, collected on Mount Mantalingajan on 14 April 1962 by D.S. Rabor (34105). Both of these specimens were gifts to AMNH from D.S. Rabor of Silliman University Natural History Museum, and the numbers on the reverse of the labels are perhaps museum catalog numbers.
