Pachycephala everetti Hartert

Pachycephala everetti Hartert, 1896b: 170 (Djampea) .

Now Pachycephala fulvotincta everetti Hartert, 1896 . See Dickinson 2003: 476, and Boles, 2007: 421.

LECTOTYPE: AMNH 657442 , adult male, collected on Tanahjampea (5 Djampea) Island, 07.05S, 120.42E ( White and Bruce, 1986: 491), Lesser Sunda Islands, Indonesia, in December 1895, by Alfred Everett. From the Rothschild Collection.

COMMENTS: No type was designated in the original description nor was the number of specimens in the type series indicated. Hartert (1920a: 449) listed as type a male collected on Djampea by Heinrich Kühn in December 1895; however, this did not serve to designate a lectotype as there are seven male specimens among the 10 collected by Kühn in December 1895 on Djampea. AMNH 657442 , bearing a Rothschild type label, is the specimen Hartert intended as the type. Everett’s field label is also marked ‘‘Type.’’ In order to remove the ambiguity and confirm Hartert’s intended type, I hereby designate AMNH 657442 the lectotype of Pachycephala everetti Hartert, 1896 . Paralectotypes are: AMNH 657443– 657451 .

Dickinson (2003: 476) separated the ‘‘ fulvotincta group’’ of subspecies as a separate species; Boles (2007: 421) retained the broad species P. pectoralis .
