Acanthopneuste trochiloides ogilvie-granti La Touche

Acanthopneuste trochiloides ogilvie-granti La Touche, 1922: 55 (Kuatun, N.W. Fohkien) .

Now Phylloscopus davisoni ogilviegranti (La Touche, 1922) . See Watson et al., 1986a: 249, Cheng, 1987: 818, and del Hoyo et al., 2006: 669.

HOLOTYPE: AMNH 450256 , adult male, collected at Guadun (5 Kuatun), 27.45N, 117.35E (BirdLife International, 2001: 2567), Fujian (5 Fohkien), China, on 11 April 1897. From the J. de La Touche Collection via the Rothschild Collection.

COMMENTS: In the original description, La Touche said that the type with the above data was in the Rothschild Collection. AMNH 450256 is the only such specimen that came to AMNH and it is marked ‘‘ Type’ ’ by La Touche. He did not indicate how many specimens he examined, but measurements given indicated that he had at least two males and two females. The only specimen in AMNH that may be a paratype is AMNH 450257 , identified by Hartert as ogilviegranti, from the La Touche Collection and collected in May 1912. It was originally identified as a male, which symbol has been marked out and ‘‘ ♀ E.H. ’’ written in ; the wing measures 52 mm. This was probably published as a male by La Touche.

Watson et al. (1986a: 249) incorrectly listed ogilviegranti as having been described as a subspecies of Acanthopneuste davisoni .
