Miro dannefaerdi Rothschild

Miro dannefaerdi Rothschild, 1894b: 688 (Snares Island).

Now Petroica macrocephala dannefaerdi (Rothschild, 1894) View in CoL . See Dickinson, 2003: 522.

LECTOTYPE: AMNH 608043 About AMNH , adult male, collected on Snares Island , 48.00S, 166.34E (Times Atlas), New Zealand, by Dannefaerd. From the Rothschild Collection. GoogleMaps

COMMENTS: In the original description, Rothschild noted that the type was in his collection and that he had more than 20 specimens. Twenty specimens came to AMNH with the Rothschild Collection , 15 of which were from the Dannefaerd collection and with minimal data. AMNH 608043 About AMNH bears a Rothschild type label, and Dannefaerd’s label has ‘‘Type’’ written on it and underlined in red. When Hartert (1920: 494) listed this type, he clearly intended the specimen bearing the Rothschild type label, but he did not further identify the specimen. In order to confirm Rothschild’s and Hartert’s intent, I hereby designate AMNH 608043 About AMNH the lectotype of Miro dannefaerdi Rothschild. Paralectotypes from Snares Island are: AMNH 608038 About AMNH , without further data ; AMNH 608039–608042 About AMNH , three males and one female, collected by Travers in April 1894 ; and AMNH 608044–608057 About AMNH , five males, five females, four unsexed, undated, from the Dannefaerd Collection. Another Dannefaerd specimen was exchanged by Rothschild to RMNH ( Dekker, 2003: 78)
