Pinicola enucleator eschatosus Oberholser View in CoL

Pinicola enucleator eschatosus Oberholser, 1914: 51 View in CoL (Harry’s River, Newfoundland).

Now Pinicola enucleator leucura (P.L.S. Müller, 1776) View in CoL . See Hellmayr, 1938: 257–258; Howell et al., 1968: 286; Adkinsson, 1999; Dickinson, 2003: 755; and Clement, 2010: 599–600.

HOLOTYPE: AMNH 388227 View Materials , adult female, collected at Harry’s River , Newfoundland, Canada, on 1 July 1913, by L.C. Sanford (no. 607). From the Leonard C. Sanford Collection. View Materials

COMMENTS: In the original description, Oberholser gave the above data for the holotype. It is difficult to determine his exact type series ; he ( Oberholser, 1914: 53) gave measurements, apparently of the unflattened wing, for two adult males from Fox Island River, collected on 26 June 1912, and three adult females from Harry’s River on June 30, July 1, and July 21, 1913, from Sanford’s collection. He apparently did not have Sanford’s entire series at hand for there are 11 specimens. I have measured the entire series and give my measurements of the unflattened wing in brackets after those given by Oberholser. As indicated, the female collected on 1 July 1913 is the holotype, 104 [104]. The two female paratypes, collected on Harry’s River, are: AMNH 761427 View Materials , sexed as an immature male, but in female plumage and considered a female adult by Oberholser, collected on 30 June 1913, wing 105.5 [106] ; AMNH 761428 View Materials , female, 21 July 1913, wing 105.5 [106]. The only other female collected on Harry’s River was collected in 1914. There are five males and one female collected on the Fox Island River on 26 June 1912. The following two come closest in measurements to those given by Oberholser and are considered paratypes of eschatosus: AMNH 761432 View Materials , adult male, 116 [116] ; AMNH 761434 View Materials , adult male, 112.5 [112]. Other paratypes measured and/or mentioned in the text are in USNM .

Adkisson (1999: 3) and Clement (2010: 599) synonymized eschatosus with leucura; Dickinson (2003: 755) recognized it.
