Hylophilus viridiflavus Lawrence

Hylophilus viridiflavus Lawrence, 1861b: 324 (Atlantic side of the Isthmus).

Now Hylophilus flavipes viridiflavus Lawrence, 1861 View in CoL . See Hellmayr, 1935: 174–175; Wetmore et al., 1984: 238–241; Dickinson, 2003: 486; and Brewer, 2010: 437–438.

HOLOTYPE: AMNH 40132 View Materials , female, collected on the Atlantic side of the Isthmus, Panama, during the ‘‘winter’’ of 1860–1861, by James McLeannan and John R. Galbraith. From the George N. Lawrence Collection (nos. 176 and 198). View Materials

COMMENTS: The female was described and Galbraith’s notes quoted in the description said ‘‘Rare; but one obtained, which was found in the jungle.’’ The number ‘‘176’’ on this specimen is apparently the species number in the Lawrence Collection; ‘‘198’’ is apparently the collectors’ number. It is marked ‘‘Type’’ by Lawrence and bears an AMNH type label. Wetmore et al. (1984: 238, 240) restricted the type locality to Frijoles, 09.10N, 79.48W ( Siegel and Olson, 2008), Colón, Panama.

I cannot explain the statement by Wetmore et al. (1984: 241) that McLeannan took ‘‘possibly only 3 in addition to the type.’’ While McLeannan did collect alone both before and after the period when he collected with Galbraith, only a single specimen of viridiflavus came to AMNH with the Lawrence Collection. If other specimens collected by McLeannan alone are found, they are not paratypes, as the single specimen was described.
