Melanocorypha calandra hebraica Meinertzhagen View in CoL

Melanocorypha calandra hebraica Meinertzhagen, 1920: 21 View in CoL (Jenin, N. Palestine).

Now Melanocorypha calandra hebraica Meinertzhagen, 1920 View in CoL . See Cramp, 1988: 93.

LECTOTYPE: AMNH 555141 About AMNH , adult male, collected at Jenin , 32°28′N, 35°18′E (Times Atlas), Jordan, on 1 May 1920, by Colonel Richard Meinertzhagen. From the Rothschild Collection. GoogleMaps

COMMENTS: In the original description, Meinertzhagen (1920: 21) noted that the type was a male collected at Jenin, north Palestine, on 1 May 1920 and was in the Rothschild Museum. There are two specimens with these data now in AMNH. Because the specimen listed above bears the Rothschild type label, it seems certain that Hartert (1928: 200) intended it to be the lectotype, but because of the ambiguity, I hereby designate AMNH 555141 the lectotype. AMNH 555142, the other male, is the paralectotype.
