INTRODUCTION 


TuHIs second volume lists in alphabetical order the name-bearing type

passerines in volume I. The key numbers refer to passerine families or 
_ sub-families as follows :— 


1. Eurylaimidae 27. Cinclidae 48. Méeliphagidae 
2. Dendrocolaptidae 28. Troglodytidae Emberizidae

The use of letters in addition to figures was necessary owing to 
taxonomic changes during the period of preparation. 


Volume 2 differs from volume 1 in including drawings in the Department 
of Zoology accepted as type specimens (see below). The drawings of 
non-passerines accepted as types are listed among other amendments to 
volume 1 on pp. 613-622. 

A third volume is in preparation which lists in systematic order all the 
names included in volumes 1 and 2. 

The International Code of Zoological Nomenclature lays responsibilities 
upon the institutions in which types are deposited (recommendation 72). 
However, as was pointed out in the Introduction to Volume 1, they cannot 


iv INTRODUCTION 


fulfil these responsibilities unless authors notify them of the publication of 
new names based on specimens in their institutions. Labelling of the 
specimens before publication is no substitute ; see the entry “ meinert- 
zhageni”’ in the additions and corrections to volume | on p. 618. 

We hope that our colleagues in other museums will find this catalogue 
to be a valuable, accurate and systematic record of the bird holotypes and 
selected syntypes, numbering about 8,500, in the Department of Zoology. 

We apologise for any minor inconsistencies of presentation, due to the 
fact that the original entries were prepared in systematic order, over a 
period of years, and that more than one person was involved. Some small 
differences in the wording of entries which only became apparent in the 
final proofs were not considered of sufficient importance to merit alteration. 


Drawings as Type Specimens 


The library of the Museum holds a number of original drawings of 
birds, on which, in some instances, the descriptions and names of new 
species were based, and the models of which were not preserved. These 
drawings must, therefore, be considered as the holotypes, and all those 
accepted as such are now listed in this volume. They are all of Australian 
birds, by four artists of whom Forster, Parkinson and Ellis have been 
dealt with by Lysaght (1959). The fourth was Thomas Watling [1762- 
2c. 1810). 

Watling arrived at Port Jackson, Sydney, in October 1792, as a convict 
transported for forgery ; and was employed by Surgeon J. White to make 
drawings ‘ of landscapes and natural objects’. Latham (1801, and in 
Sharpe 1906) may have based his descriptions in whole or in part on 
Watling’s drawings or on copies of them by himself and others (see 
references on p. vi) although he also had access to the paintings by 
various artists collected by A. B. Lambert. These were drawn in New 
South Wales and sent to Latham in about 1800, and are now in Lord 
Derby’s library at Knowsley, Lancashire. The two series of drawings 
were compared by H. W. England, Librarian of the department of Zoology 
at the Museum (Mathews 1942), and he numbered the drawings in the 
sequence in which they are mounted in the volumes. Both the Watling 
and the Lambert drawing numbers are given in the entries here. A 
number of the drawings listed by Sharpe (1906) cannot be accepted as 
types of Latham’s descriptions ; some being now considered indeter- 
minate, while in other instances Latham used other material. Some type 
descriptions were wrongly attributed to Latham by Sharpe. Four of 
Latham’s English names, although listed by Sharpe, were not latinized 
by him and are not types. Since they are in English they are not referred 
to in the main sequence of this volume ; they are :—no. 270 Crested or 
Caspian Tern, no. 274 New Holland Tern, no. 277 New Holland Crimson- 
billed Gull, and no. 291 New Holland Penguin. 


INTRODUCTION vV 


Additional notes on Authors and Collections 


Johann Natterer [1787-1843] and August von Pelzeln [1825-1891] 


The collection made by Natterer in Brazil between 1817 and 1835 went 
to the Imperial Zoological Cabinet, Vienna, and was described by von 
Pelzeln (1871) using some names proposed by Natterer. Von Pelzeln 
would refer to several specimens that had been collected from various 
localities on different dates, and only rarely selected a holotype. P. L. 
Sclater received a number of the specimens in exchange with Vienna, 
and his collection was purchased by the Museum between 1884 and 1890. 
Those specimens referred to by Sclater (1888-1890) as “‘ authentic speci- 
mens ”’, the dates and localities of which agree with the original des- 
cription, are recognised here as syntypes. 


N. A. Vigors [1785-1840] and T. Horsfield [1773-1859] 


** Australian birds in the collection of the Linnean Society” (Trans. 
Linn. Soc. Lond., 15 : 170-331) was published on 9 February 1827 (minutes 
of the Council of the Society). The first four volumes of Peters’ Checklist 
(1931-1939) cite the year incorrectly as 1826, while subsequent volumes 
cite 1827. A few entries in volume 1 of the present work may give the 
incorrect date. 


E. L. Layard [1824-1900] and his son L. C. Layard (dates not known) 


Sharpe (1906) gives information on the Layards, father and son, and 
my note on H. B. Tristram in volume one mentions the former. L. C. 
Layard would sometimes send home to his father further specimens from 
the same locality soon after the original description was published. Some 
of these have been incorrectly labelled ‘* type ’’ or described as such in the 
Catalogue of Birds. Where this has occurred such invalid “ types ” 
have entries in the present work with the initial name not in boldface 
print. 


Acknowledgements 


Although in the first volume I expressed my thanks to the Bird Section 
staff as a whole, three names deserve special mention. When head of the 
section Sir Norman Kinnear did much work on the selection of type 
specimens from the older collections of Indian birds. Under the super- 
vision of Mr. C. J. O. Harrison, Mr. S. A. Parker checked and revised 
the layout of every entry in Volume 1, as well as a number in this volume. 
For the last three years Mr. Harrison has continued this work in colla- 
boration with me, and so enabled the task to be completed.

1873.5.12.1954. Flores, 1862. Collected by A. R. Wallace, 
Wallace Collection. 

Wallace used a Temminck MS. name previously used by 
Bonaparte, Consp. Gen., 1 (1850) : 352, asa nomen nudum. Wallace’s 
description was based on both Lombok and Flores specimens, but 
Sumbawa was included in the localities. Rensch, Mitteil. zool. 
Mus. Berlin, 17 (1931) : 589 restricted the type locality to Flores and 
Sumbawa. Vaurie, Bull. Amer. Mus. Nat. Hist., 93 (4) (1949) : 297, 
considers that the name is valid for both Flores and Lombok birds 
but not for Sumbawa. In view of this, although one of the British 
Museum specimens Reg. no. 1873.5.12.1954., is marked on the 
label with the red stripe used by Wallace to denote key or type 
specimens, a specimen from Flores has been selected, although it 
appears a little small in size.

collection is now in the Liverpool Museum the type should be there 
also.

maculipennis—Thamnophilus maculipennis P. L. Sclater, 1855 1 # 

Edinb. New Philos. Journ. (n.s.), 1 : 247. As this name was intro- 
duced as a ‘new name’ for Thamnophilus stellatus Spix it stands 
as an objective synonym of the latter, in spite of Sclater’s intention 
of superceding Spix’s loose description. He later listed as type a 
specimen from his collection, Cat. Bds. Brit. Mus., 15 (1890) : 217.

specimen (no. 1875.4.9.48.) was regarded as the type by Sharpe, 
Cat. Bds. Brit. Mus., 4 (1879) : 357, and by Grant and Mackworth- 
Praed, Bull Brit. Orn. Cl., 77 (1957) : 64, but has been shown to 
have the wrong measurements. It was received with Sharpe’s 
Collection and is labelled ““Gaboon, Verreaux”. Another specimen 
(no. 1875.4.9.359) is labelled ““Gaboon, Walker’? and ‘“Sharpe’s 
Cat. Bds. Afr. 420a’’. It conforms with the measurements and 
description. We suspect that the labels were inadvertently changed,

This specimen was labelled by Shelley as the type and corresponds 
in its measurements with the original description. Shelley, Birds of 
Africa, 2 (1900) : 25, refers to the discovery of the type by Fischer 
and his illustration (pl. 1, fig. 2, op. cit.) appears to be of this 
specimen, but there is no evidence concerning the way in which it 
came into his possession.

the “‘juvenile’’ described, and there are also three adult male syntypes

Gould used Jerdon’s MS. name. It seems almost certain that this 
specimen is the one given by Jerdon to Hume, who described it in 
Stray Feathers, 1 (1872): 4, but, in a footnote, accepted Gould’s 
description as the earlier. As there is no specimen in the collec-

specimen he used in the original description.

Presented by the Honourable East India Company Museum. 

There are two other syntypes in the collection. 


punicea — Pyrrhospiza punicea Blyth, 1844 . : ; . 59 
in Hodgson, J. Asiat. Soc. Bengal, 13: 953. Blyth completed 
Hodgson’s paper and used Hodgson MS. names but there is no evid- 
ence that he saw the specimens which were listed as types by Sharpe, 
Cat. Bds. Brit. Mus., 12 (1888) : 433, and which are therefore not 
regarded as valid. 


punjaubi — A/auda gulgula punjaubi Whistler, 1936. ; 17

purpurascens — Calornis purpurascens G. R. Gray, 1870 : 2.0 G2 

Handlist of the genera and species of birds in the British Museum. 
2:26 Gray refers to plate 33 in Gould, Supplement to the Birds of 
Australia. (1851). Since no single specimen of a number from 
Cape York which were available can be identified with the plate the 
latter is regarded as the type. Sharpe, Cat. Bds. Brit. Mus., 
13 (1890) : 140, lists two females collected by McGillivray as types but 
these cannot be accepted.

454 pusilla 


pusilla — Pnoepyga pusilla Hodgson, 1845. ‘ . 32B 
Proc. zool. Soc. Lond., 1845 :25. Sharpe, Cat. Bds. Brit. Mus., 
6 (1881) : 304, listed a Hodgson specimen as the type, but the evidence 
suggests that none of the Hodgson specimens in the collection was 
collected at a date which would have made it available for the 
original description. 


pusillum — Eupsilostoma pusillum P. L. Sclater, 1860. <a, 9

Conspectus Generum Avium, 1 : 265. Ixos cafer vel pygaeus Hodg- 
son, in J. E. Gray, Zoological Miscellany, 1844 : 84 is a nomen 
nudum. There is no proof that Bonaparte saw Hodgson’s speci- 
mens from Nepal: he gave the locality in the Conspectus as “Him. 
Assam, Bengal.’’ Hodgson’s specimens, listed as types by Sharpe, 
Cat. Bds. Brit. Mus., 6 (1881) : 129, are not therefore regarded as 
having any type status.

It is not known how this specimen, which bears Blyth’s label, 
came to Gould, but it may be the “‘single bird”’ referred to by Blyth. 
Although Blyth, Cat. Bds. Mus. Asiat. Soc. (1852) : 182 later refers 
to two specimens, the dates given “1845-8” suggest that the second 
was collected later. Sushkin, Proc. Boston Soc. Nat. Hist., 38 
[1925] : 45, quotes the above specimen as the type.

5 (1881) : 21, stated that a male type was in the collection, but it 
cannot now be traced and the only Blanford specimen is a female 
which does not appear to have been included in the original des- 
cription.

the specimen prove to be of a distinct form. Lynes, Ibis, (12) 6,

Nepal as the “type” when relegating it to synonymy, but there is no 
reason to suppose that the specimen had any type status.

That this was the type was confirmed by Gould, Birds of Australia,

wrongly assumed that his comments on the type of G. ocularis 
referred to the type status of this specimen as regards the name 
G. subocularis. Stone, Aust. Ay. Rec., 1 (1913) : 173-4 claimed a 
juvenile from New South Wales in the collection at Philadelphia as 
the type, but this is not valid and has not been listed by de

List of mammalia and birds of Nepal and Thibet presented by B. H. 
Hodgson . . . to the British Museum, (1846) : 65, 151. These are 
nomina nuda, and the specimens listed as types by Seebohm, Cat. 
Bds. Brit. Mus., 5 (1881) : 50, 85, have no type status. 


swainsoni—Petrochelidon swainsoni P. L. Sclater, 1858 . 18 
Proc. zool. Soc. Lond., 1858 : 296. This must apparently be con- 
sidered as a substitute name for Hirundo melanogaster Swainson 
(W. E. China in /itt. 22 Aug. 1961 on a parallel case, I.C.Z.N. ref. 
Z.N. (S) 1223). If not, Sclater’s specimen, Reg. no. 1858.9.27.1, 
which was listed as the type by Hellmayr, Catalogue of Birds of the

Bull. Brit. Orn. Cl., 41 (1920):9. New name for Muscicapa 
caeruleocephala Sykes, 1832 (q.v.) on the grounds of its pre- 
occupation by M. caeruleocephala Scopoli, 1786.

There are several other syntypes in the collection. Vaurie, The 
Birds of the Palearctic Fauna : Passeriformes, (1959) : 73, and Vaurie, 
in Peters’ Checklist of Birds of the World, 9 (1960) : 162, uses 
Heterura sylvana Blyth, J. Asiat. Soc. Bengal, 14 (1845) : 556. This 
is incorrect, vide B. P. Hall, Bull. Br. Mus. nat. Hist. (Zool.), 7, no. 5 
(1961) : 289. 


sylvatica—Prinia sylvatica Jerdon, 1840 35

Reg. no. 1845.1.10.38. Sejoor Pass of the Neilgherries, (Madras, 
on label). Collected and presented by T. C. Jerdon as the type. 

This specimen was overlooked by Sharpe, Cat. Bds. Brit. Mus., 
7 (1883) : 201. It is evident that many specimens would have been 
available at the time of the description. 


sylvicultor—Criniger sylvicultor Neave, 1909 : re d2

tahatali 549 


taczanowskii—Buarremon taczanowskii P. L. Sclater and Salvin, 1875 49 
Proc. zool. Soc. Lond., 1875 : 236. Since this is a new name for 
B. mystacalis Taczanowski, 1874, on the grounds of preoccupation, 
the type is that of the original description, and the type listed by 
Sclater, Cat. Bds. Brit. Mus., 11 (1886) : 268, is invalid. 


taczanowskii—Euphonia chlorotica taczanowskii P. L. Sclater, 1886 51

Yen apparently used Robinson’s MS. name (vide Chasen, Handlist 
of Malayan Birds, (1935) : 230).

Malaya, 7 July 1905. Collected by H. C. Robinson. Presented 
by the Selangore State Museum. 


tahatali—Ploceus tahatali Smith, 1836 : F . GF 
A specimen is listed by Sharpe, Cat. Bds. Brit. Mus., 13 (1890) : 466 
as the type, but Shelley in The Birds of Africa, 4 (1905) : 483 shows 
that this specimen does not agree with the type description, and also 
(op. cit. : 409) refers to a type specimen apparently examined from 
some other source. The Academy of Natural Sciences of Philadel- 
phia lists the type among its specimens.

Porto Rico, West Indies, May 1863. Collected and bequeathed

Bds. Brit. Mus., 14 (1888) : 180.

Sharpe, Cat. Bds. Brit. Mus., 13, (1890) : 663, lists two adult males 
from Gould, stating that one was collected by McCoy and that both 
were from Victoria. The first he lists as the type. Gould did not 
mention a holotype although there is a reference to a specimen from 
McCoy among others that he had seen. The first of the two speci- 
mens cannot be traced. The second specimen has an original label 
inscribed with an earlier name ‘Menura superba’, indicating that it 
was an early specimen but like many Gould specimens other data 
have been discarded and the label merely gives ‘Australia’ as the 
locality.

CORRECTIONS AND ADDITIONS 


TO 


VOLUME 1 


In the following list of amendments and additions to volume one the 
entries are prefixed by the page number in the first volume on which they 
appear or would have appeared. Since the decision to include the type 
water-colour drawings in the library of the Zoology Department of the 
British Museum (Natural History) was not taken until the first volume 
had already been prepared, the list is larger than it might otherwise have 
been.

parvula—Colluricincla parvula Gould, 1845. : ms | 

Proc. zool. Soc. Lond., (Sept.) 1845: 62, and Birds of 
Australia, 2 (Dec. 1845): pl. 78. ? Syntype, Adult (male, on 
label). Reg. no. 1881.5.1.446. Port Essington, (25 Jan. 1841 
on label). Collected by J. Gilbert (Gilbert was in the locality 
until March 1841, vide Chisholm, Emu, 44 (1944) : 131). 
Purchased of J. Gould. 

The specimen lacks a tail. Gould did not define a holotype 
and the plate showed both sexes. Gould quotes from Gilbert. 
de Schauensee, Proc. Acad. Nat. Sci. Philadelphia, 109 (1957) : 
218, claims a holotype, together with a female, but is mistaken 
in stating that there is no specimen from Gould in the British 
Museum. The present specimen, marked by P. L. Sclater in 
the B.M. register as “‘type’’ appears to be a syntype.

preoccupation by Prionochilus everetti Sharpe, (Jan.) 1877. 


rubrocanus—Turdus rubrocanus Gray, 1846 . 3 . Si 

According to the amended article 11d incorporated into the 
second edition of the International Code of Zoological Nomen- 
clature, (1963), this name is available because it was used by 
E. C. Stuart Baker, Fauna of British India, Birds, 8 (1930) : 
624, as a valid name. However, this availability is derived 
from its publication as a synonym of Merula castanea Gould, 
Proc. Zool. Soc., Lond., 1835 : 185, so that the type-specimen of 
M. castanea, and not the specimen listed by Seebohm, Cat. 
Bds. Brit. Mus., 5 (1881) : 260, is the type of rubrocanus. This 
specimen no longer exists.
