 This name was bestowed upon a series of at least four males and at least 

 four females, but the description was based upon the "Adult male." Since 

 the females are referred to only by measurements, I prefer to consider our 

 No. 316152 a mere paratype, despite the fact that one of the authors has 

 written the word "type" upon its label.

 Hypsipetes batanensis Mearns 



Philippine Journ. Sci. 2(5) sec. A: 357, October 1907. 

 =Hypsipetes amaurotis batanensis Mearns, fide Deignan (ms.) 

 202092. Adult male. Santo Domingo de Basco (in the foothills of Mount 

 Irada), Batan Island, Philippine Islands. May 27, 1907. Collected 

 by Edgar A. Mearns. Original number 23. Received from Edgar A. 

 Mearns (in whose private collection it was No. 15199) . 

 The specimen here listed is the type of Mearns's description only; the 

 types of McGregor's homonym {loc. cit., p. 342) were 18 birds in the collec- 

 tion of the Philippine Bureau of Science. 



According to Mearns' original description, his Hypsipetes batanensis is 

 "exactly like topotypes of Hypsipetes fugensis Grant, but larger, and with 

 the forehead rufescent instead of cinereous." The words "rufescent" and 

 "cinereous" should be reversed!
