Vireosylvia (sic) virginalis Lawrence

Vireosylvia (sic) virginalis Lawrence, 1865a: 98 (Island of Sombrero, W.I.).

Now Vireo altiloquus altiloquus (Vieillot, 1808) . See Baird, 1866: 330–331; Hellmayr, 1935: 146–148; Blake, 1968: 125–126; Dickinson, 2003: 485; and Brewer, 2010: 432.

HOLOTYPE: AMNH 40077, female, collected on Sombrero Island, 18.37N, 63.26W (Times atlas), Leeward Islands, West Indies, on 1 April 1864, by A.A. Julien. From the George N. Lawrence Collection (no. 142).

COMMENTS: Lawrence noted that he had a single specimen and said ‘‘I think it may possibly be distinct; should it so prove on a future comparison I suggest for it the specific name of virginalis . ’’ He did not compare it with his specimen of ‘‘ V. atripennis ,’’ listed immediately prior to this description (see above). Baird (1866: 330–331) found both of these specimens indistinguishable from V. altiloquus .
