Nine males and three females were collected ( Rand, 1942a: 329) ; only 10 of the 11 paratypes were cataloged at AMNH: AMNH 426543–426546 View Materials and 426548–426553, all from Lake Daviumbu. AMNH 426548 View Materials and 426552 were exchanged to FMNH in the 1960s .
Rand (1942a) published an account of the birds collected, and Rand and Brass (1940) published a summary of the 1936–1937 Archbold Expedition.
