PHAPITRERON SAMARENSIS Mearns. 
SAMAR WHITE-EARED PIGEON. 
Phapitreron samarensis MEARNS, Proc. U. 8. Nat. Mus. (1909), 36, 436. 
“Characters —Resembling Phapitreron brevirostris, but with forehead, 
chin, and throat whiter than in P. albifrons McGregor. From P. brev- 
trostris it is readily distinguishable by the white forehead, chin, and 
upper throat, also by the much greater amount of coppery amethystine 
reflections on the crown, breast, and upper back, and by the usual 
absence of green reflections on the side of the hind head below the 
suborbital white stripe; and the under parts are much paler. From 
P. albifrons it may be at once distinguished by the different color of 
the under parts, which lack the olivaceous-gray on the breast, and 
by its more ochraceous abdomen; also the coppery reflections on the 
breast and upper back of P. samarensis are entirely absent in P. 
albifrons. 
“Measurements of type (from well-made skin of female).—Total length, 
230 mm.; wing, 124; tail, 95; culmen and cere (chord), 14; tarsus, 
19: middle toe with claw, 26. ‘Eyes pink. Feet, base of mandible,
