Now Myzomela obscura mortyana Hartert, 1903 View in CoL . See White and Bruce, 1986: 401, and Higgins et al., 2008: 638–639.

HOLOTYPE: AMNH 692586 View Materials , [male], Morotai (5 Morty) Island, 02.20N, 128.25E ( White and Bruce, 1986: 491), Moluccas, Indonesia, undated, by J.M. Dumas (no. M.59). From the Rothschild Collection. GoogleMaps

COMMENTS: Hartert had a single specimen of this form. It bears, in addition to the Rothschild type label, only a Rothschild Collection label marked ‘‘ Type,’’ giving Dumas as the collector and his number. Rothschild noted in his partial list of purchases (Archives, Department of Ornithology) that on 8 March 1899 he purchased 109 specimens of birds from ‘‘Morty.’’ The collection was probably made in late 1898. J.M. Dumas had been Alfred Everett’s assistant and he continued to collect after Everett’s death.
