ANAIMOS 1 MACULATUS OPISTATUS, new subspecies 



Similar to Anaimos maculatus macidatus, from Borneo, but smaller ; 

 olive green of upper and lower parts less yellowish. 



Type.— Adult male, No. 180933, U. S. N. M. ; Telok Bluku, Nias 

 Island, March 3, 1905 ; Dr. W. L. Abbott. 



1 The generic name Prionochilus Strickland (Proc. Zool. Soc. Lond., 1841, p. 

 29; type Pardalotus percussus Temminck [designated by Gray, 1842]) is in- 

 validated by Prionochcilus Chevrolat (in Dejean, Cat. Col., ed. 3, 1837, p. 451) 

 for a genus of Coleoptera. The proper generic title of this group is therefore 

 Anaimos Reichenbach (Handb. Spec. Ornith., 1853, p. 245; type, Pardalotus 

 thoracicus Temminck [by monotypy]).
