Cyanerpes cyaneus pacificus Chapman

Cyanerpes cyaneus pacificus Chapman, 1915b: 655 (Barbacoas, Dept. Narino, Colombia).

Now Cyanerpes cyaneus pacificus Chapman, 1915 . See Hellmayr, 1935: 258, Isler and Isler, 1999: 344–347, and Dickinson, 2003: 814.

HOLOTYPE: AMNH 118227 , adult male, collected at Barbacoas , 01.41N, 78.09W ( Paynter, 1997), Nariño, Colombia, on 1 September 1912, by William B. Richardson.

COMMENTS: Chapman gave the AMNH number of the holotype in the original description and examined 15 specimens in addition to the type. Paratypes: Colombia, Barbacoas , AMNH 118225 , 118226 , 118228–118231 , three males, three females ; Tumaco, AMNH 118232 , male ; Los Cisneros, AMNH 108489 , 108492 , male, female ; Buenaventura, AMNH 108490 , 108491 , male, female ; San Jose, AMNH 108493 , male. Ecuador, Esmeraldas, AMNH 118973 , 118974 , two males ; Manavi, AMNH 120196 , male. AMNH 108491 was exchanged to O. Bangs on 20 September 1918 and is probably in MCZ. I did not find a second male from San Jose and it is possible that it was also exchanged to Bangs ; there are two dates entered into the AMNH catalog for the one specimen entered at 108493. The one now in AMNH was collected 10 December 1911 ; the other date is in March. Three additional specimens, AMNH 155102 , 155103 , 155109 , were collected early enough but were not cataloged until 1920 and are not considered part of the type series .
