CHECK-LIST OF BIRDS OF THE WORLD
VOLUME III
BY
JAMES LEE PETERS
CURATOR OF BIRDS, MUSEUM OF COMPARATIVE ZOOLOGY
COPYRIGHT, 1937
BY THE PRESIDENT AND FELLOWS OF HARVARD COLLEGE
PRINTED AT THE HARVARD UNIVERSITY PRESS CAMBRIDGE, MASS., U.S.A.
INTRODUCTION
THE two orders treated in this volume have been the objects of special study on the part of many ornithologists during the past 150 years and the resulting literature is enormous. Among those who have contributed extensively are Kuhl (Parrots), Wagler (Parrots), Temminck (Pigeons), Bona- parte (Parrots and Pigeons), Reichenbach (Pigeons), Schlegel (Parrots and Pigeons), Finsch (Parrots) and Salvadori (Par- rots and Pigeons). The two volumes of the Catalogue of Birds of the British Museum by Salvadori dealing with these orders have long been the standard, and after frequent re- newed association with these volumes, I can say that in the care and thoroughness with which they were prepared and in the soundness of their writer’s views they constitute a record of which anyone might be proud, and stamp their author as a truly great ornithologist.
In the introduction to the first volume of this series I briefly explained my position as regards recognition of sub- species. It may be well to amplify the earlier statement. A large number of new subspecies have been proposed in recent years; some of these are actual discoveries, the result of orni- thological exploration of regions hitherto imperfectly known; others, the result of the growing tendency for finer subdivision of already well known forms where the value of further nam- ing is at least questionable. In many cases it is necessary to accept a new form at its face value in default of material; in other cases if the material at my disposal does not show satis- factorily the characters claimed the name is placed in synon- ymy without prejudice. In fact in debatable cases it is far better to place a name as a synonym; if its validity is subse- quently confirmed the name is available and may be resur-

rected; on the other hand the tacit recognition of a form of questionable validity gives it a false status and helps to per- petuate it unnecessarily. It is manifestly impossible to ex- amine material of every proposed subspecies; to do so would result in endless time spent on the least important feature of a Check-list such as this.
No new names published since January 1, 1936 are in- cluded in this Volume, the manuscript having been com- pleted at the end of 1935 and. turned over for publication shortly thereafter.
For the loan of material I am under obligations to the United States National Museum, American Museum of National History, Academy of Natural Sciences, Carnegie Museum, Field Museum of Natural History, and to Mr. H.B. Conover. Portions of the manuscript have been read by Dr. Erwin Stresemann, Prof. Oscar Neumann, Dr. Ernst Mayr, Mr. J. T. Zimmer and Dr. J. P. Chapin. Proofs have been read in whole or in part by Dr. Ernst Mayr, Mr. J. T. Zim- mer, Dr. Alexander Wetmore, Dr. Herbert Friedmann, Mr. J. H. Riley, Dr. Stresemann, Prof. Neumann, Dr. Friederich Steinbacher, Mr. N. B. Kinnear, Mr. Hugh Whistler, Dr. C. B. Ticehurst, Mr. D. A. Bannerman, Dr. W. L. Sclater and Mr. E. C. Stuart Baker. Specific inquiries on particular specimens have been answered by Mr. W. H. Behle, Mr. C. D. Bunker, Mr. J. H. Fleming, Dr. Joseph Grinnell and Dr. C. E. Hellmayr; while Dr. Jean Linsdale, Mr. H. G. K. Molineux, Dr. W. H. Osgood, Mr. Kinnear, Dr. Leonhard Stejneger and Mr. Zimmer have kindly verified certain refer- ences; Mr. Arthur Loveridge has been of much assistance on the orthography of East African place names. Mrs. Peters has again assisted in the proof reading and Mrs. Bowen who typed the manuscript of the first and second volumes also typed the manuscript for this one. Several pleasant evenings were spent at the home of my late friend Thomas E. Penard, checking references in rare works contained in his library.
Once more acknowledgments are due to Dr. Thomas

Hartert (Vég. pal. Fauna, p. 1510) considers ellzoti a synonym of P. e. exustus. E. C. Stuart Baker (in litt.) believes erlangeri and hindustan cannot be separated.

1 Bird, Ibis 1935, p. 352, provisionally identifies an adult from the Island of Mykonos, Cyclades, as C. l. palaestinae.
2 Columba livia is undoubtedly the parent stock from which the common domestic pigeon has been derived; as such it has been carried by man all over the world and in many places has reverted to a wild or semi-wild state. Some form of this species occurs in northern China; Chinese wild killed examples vary from practically complete melanos to specimens difficult to distinguish from C. l. livia, but no Chinese bird that I have examined possesses a white rump. My belief is that the name Columba nigricans Buturlin should be ap- plied to the Rock Pigeons of northern China, though this country is outside the normal range of the species.

1 The type in the British Museum, the skin of a bird that formerly lived in the Zoological Society’s Gardens, remains unique; whether it represents a dis- tinct race whose range is unknown, or whether it is merely an aberration, re- mains to be learned; Prof. Neumann (in litt.) definitely states it to be the latter.
2 Rothschild, Extinct Bds., 1907, p. 166, has named Nesoenas duboisi from Réunion. This is an entirely apocryphal species, based solely on the description of Dubois in ‘‘ Voyages aux Iles Dauphine ou Madagascar’’; no specimens or remains of any kind are known.

1 There can be no real doubt that Bangs (Proc. Biol. Soc.

On the other hand his proposed changes have never been accepted, and since there is also room for argument contrary to Bangs’ reasoning, I feel that to depart from current usage would only cause needless confusion.

1 Replaces Chamaepelia Swainson 1827, of Sharpe’s Hand-list. For many years it was believed that Columbigallina Boie was preoccupied by Columbi- gallina Oken 1817; the latter however is a nomen nudum and hence does not affect Boie’s name. Swainson’s name was originally spelled Chaemepelia and had been unofficially altered to Chamaepelia by most authors prior to the appearance of Opinion 61 of the Int. Comm. Zool. Nomencl., sanctioning such emendation.

2 In view of the many points of similarity between this and other members of the genus I cannot see my way clear to recognizing Eupelia Todd; those who wish to maintain that genus on its slight structural divergences must recognize Talpacotia Bonaparte and create a new genus for buckleyi if they wish to be consistent.

1 Peristera pretiosa Ferrari-Perez is a substitute name for the preoccupied Columba cinerea of Temminck. Perez gives no description or diagnosis of the single specimen he had at hand from Jalapa, Mexico, and the validity of his name rests entirely on the reference to pl. 260 of Temminck’s PI. col.
2 IT cannot help but feel that an adequate series of C. mondetoura from Cen- tral America would tend to show that the differences on which the Central American forms rest are due to individual rather than to geographic variation.

2 Oreopeleia albifacies, O. chiriquensis and O. linearis would all appear to be representative forms and, in spite of the marked differences, could perhaps all be considered as subspecies of O. linearis Prév.; apparently such a course should not be extended to include O. bourciert.

1 The type specimen is a bird which lived in the gardens of the Zoological Society of London; its island of origin is not known. Salvadori believed it to be more like Fijian or Tongan examples. The Fiji bird was named Phlegoenas vitiensis by Finsch in 1872.
2 Dr. Mayr writes me that Columba ferruginea Forster 1844 (not of Wagler 1829), believed to have come from Tanna Island, probably never came from there, certainly no Gallicolumba is known from Tanna today; he considers it far more likely that the bird came from the Tonga Islands. The description fits that of Gallicolumba stairi with a few minor discrepancies.

2 Replaces Calopsittacus Lesson (recte Callopsitta) 1835 of Sharpe’s Hand- list, which more recently has been displaced by Leptolophus Swainson, 1833, for the following reasons. As constituted by Wagler the genus Nymphicus contained two species, Psittacus bisetis Latham and Pszttacus novaehollandiae Gmelin. No type was designated and neither species is so named that the principles of tautonymy may be invoked to determine the type. Gray, List Gen. Bds., 1840, p. 51 designates Psittacus novaehollandiae as type, and his valid designation is not subject to change (see Opinion 32 of Int. Comm. on Zool. Nomencl.). Since Nymphicus Wagler is of earlier date than Leptolophus Swainson and both genera have the same type it follows that the latter be-

comes an objective synonym of the former. In Noy. Zool., 18, 1911, p. 13 Mathews endeavors to set aside Gray’s designation on the grounds that the second species in Nymphicus was autoptically unknown to Wagler. There is nothing in the International Code that requires specimens of an originally in- cluded species to be examined by the author of the genus before those species can be accepted for consideration for designation as the type; only such species are excluded from consideration as were (1) ‘‘species inquirendae from the standpoint of the author,” (2) ‘‘species which the author doubtfully referred to the genus,” and Wagler was quite definite as regards both the contained species.
One of Wagler’s characters for his Nymphicus was “‘latera oris anguli lobo membranaceo aucta (an omnibus?).’”’ The parenthetical query is directed at the constancy of the character, not at the allocation of either species.

Norte. — Anadorhynchus [sic] purpurascens Rothschild, Bull. Brit. Orn. Cl., 16, 1905, p. 18 (Guadeloupe, Lesser Antilles), is based entirely on Don de Navaret, Rel. Voy. Christ. Colombe, 2, p. 425. While there is no actual basis to doubt the truth of Navaret’s statement concerning a Macaw, or something closely allied to it, on Guadeloupe, there is no particular rea- son for taking the description too seriously nor for supposing the bird to have been congeneric with Anodorhynchus. Moreover under the definition of fossil and recent birds adopted for convenience, as explained in the intro- duction to the first volume of this work, p. vi & vii, the species described by early travelers and since entirely unsupported by specimens are beyond the scope of this Check-List.

1 Brabourne and Chubb, Bds. So. Am., 1912, p. 80, take Ecuador as the type locality, but Chapman considers it most unlikely that Levaillant’s bird, upon which the species is founded, could have come from Ecuador in Levail- lant’s time and proposes to substitute northwestern Colombia.
I concur in this thoroughly; when it becomes necessary definitely to fix a type locality, due consideration must be given to the probable origin of the specimens on which the name is based, and the arbitrary selection of an im- possible locality is to be avoided.
2 Hellmayr, Abh. K. Bayer. Akad. Wiss., Kl. 2, 22, 1906, Abth. 3, p. 577, designates Pernambuco, Brazil as the type locality, er Marcgrave, but I cannot find that the species has ever been taken further east than the Rio Guamd, in the eastern part of the State of Para.

None of these authors could have compared their birds with pl. 177 of Edwards, the exclusive basis of Linné’s name, which does not agree with birds from northeastern Venezuela or Cayenne.
2 A. p. margaritensis is very close to A. p. chrysophrys and if the former is recognized its range must be extended to include at least the Paria Peninsula. The birds recorded under the name of aeruginosus by Berlepsch and Hartert, Nov. Zool., 9, 1902, p. 107-108 from Ciudad Bolivar and Suapuré in eastern Venezuela may perhaps be referable here, while those from Altagracia, Caicara and Maipures on the middle and upper Orinoco appear to be intermediates approaching aeruginosus.

1 Pionites Heine is a substitute name for ‘‘Caica Lesson 1831,” which how- ever was then employed only in the vernacular sense, ‘‘Les Caicas,” for a group of four species viz— Psittacus pileatus Gmelin, Psittacus vulturinus Kuhl, Psittacus melanocephalus Linné and Psittacus leucogaster Kuhl. Lesson did not use Caica in a nomenclatural sense until 1842, and when he did so it was for a species quite different from any of the foregoing. Bonaparte used Caica in 1850 as the generic name of Psittacus melanocephalus Linné, but this action was of course invalid by reason of Caica Lesson 1842.

2 Dr. E.

This specimen answers the description of reichenowi very well and differs from all other skins in the collection by the characters mentioned; nevertheless I feel convinced that it is nothing but an individual variant of P. menstruus.”

1 This name has priority over Psittacus pecquetit Lesson 1831 (pesquetit, pequeti, pescquieti etc. of authors).
2 Replaces Eclectus Wagler 1832. For reasons for displacing Eclectus by Lorius see Mathews and Iredale, Austr. Av. Rec., 3, 1915, p. 45-46. Bod- daert’s name, originally spelled Larius, has been almost universally emended to Lorius on the grounds that the original spelling is a typographical error; while this is quite probable I am by no means convinced that ‘‘an error of transcrip- tion, a lapsus calami or a typographical error is evident” but that such an emendation should be sanctioned by an opinion of the International Commit- tee on Zodlogical Nomenclature. On the other hand if the original spelling — Larius — is retained, then Lorius Vigors 1825 remains valid and resumes its place as the generic name for the parrots now placed in Domicella. On the whole it seems best to consider Larius a typographical error for Lorius as has been the almost universal custom and thus avoid Larius and Lorius in the same family, which would cause endless confusion since the names have been shifted about so much.

Nore — Tanygnathus megalorynchos has been recorded from Balut Island, off the southern tip of Mindanao, and from the island of Semao, off the southwestern end of Timor. Whether these records represent unde- scribed races or are referable to some already named form is not known. In a recent review of Tanygnathus megalorynchos, Hachisuka has named the following three races: — Tanygnathus megalorhynchos obiensis Hachisuka, L’Ois. et Rev. Frang. d’Orn. (n.s.), 5, 1935, p. 216.

No specimens are on record which exactly match the type though several are described that approach that style of coloration.
