Bourns and Worcester named this form from "Negros, Masbate," in ig- 

 norance of Bowdler Sharpe's earlier naming of Oriolus steerii from Negros 

 (not Basilan, as they supposed). Although they included Negros in the 

 range of their nigrostriatus, they had seen no material from that island, 

 but derived their information from the fact that Sharpe had reported a 

 similar bird from there.
