Erythrura trichroa sanfordi Stresemann

Erythrura trichroa sanfordi Stresemann, 1931: 12 (Latimodjong-Gebirges 1600 m).

Now Erythrura trichroa sanfordi Stresemann, 1931 . See Mayr et al., 1968: 364; White and Bruce, 1986: 421–422; Dickinson, 2003: 733; and Payne, 2010: 348–349.

HOLOTYPE: AMNH 293415 , adult female, collected on the western face of the Latimojong (5 Latimodjong) Mountains, 1600 m, 03.30S, 120.05E ( USBGN, 1982), Sulawesi Island , Indonesia, on 5 August 1930, on the Heinrich Expedition 1930 (no. 1368).

COMMENTS: Heinrich’s field number of the holotype was given in the original description, but Stresemann did not enumerate his paratypes. Stresemann (1940: 40) mentioned seven specimens of sanfordi, but it is unclear whether these were part of his type series and whether the three specimens of sanfordi in AMNH are included.
