Ypsipetes, which is the same word and spelt alike in Greek, only aspirated

lole striaticeps Sharpe, Ibis, 1888, p. 200 (Palawan). 



Type: ?, Taguso, Palawan, l.vii.l887. John Whitehead leg. No. 1474. 



I consider lole striaticeps the very worn state of lole palawanensis. The 

 pale shaft-lines of the feathers of the head are due to wear, the upper side and 

 tail are very much faded. The <?, also shot at Taguso on 1 . vii. . 1887, has a few 

 fresh feathers on the back, and they are of the same colour as feathers of pala- 

 wanensis, shot end July, August, and February. /. palawanensis has been 

 found by every collector on Palawan, where it is common, i.e. Everett, Platen, 

 Steere, Whitehead, Bourns & Worcester, Celestino, while " striaticeps " was only 

 met with once by Whitehead. On the collector's * label the type of striaticeps was 

 called " Criniger palawanensis " by Whitehead, and another specimen of the 

 latter was first called Criniger palawanensis, then lole striaticeps (apparently in 

 Sharpe' s handwriting), then again C. palawanensis. 



This species is not a typical Criniger, and agrees structurally with lole olivacea, 

 the type of the genus lole. I see no reason to call it Trichophorus palawanensis, 

 as Oberholser (1905) and Macgregor have done.

 p. 51.) 



» These labels were, however, written and tied on in England; the actual original labels were 

 little tickets with a number and sex mark only, and are mostly not preserved. This detestable, 

 though convenient way of labelling is now fortunately not practised by many collectors.
