Phyllergates cucullatus meisei Stresemann

Phyllergates cucullatus meisei Stresemann, 1931a: 45 (Latimodjong-Gebirge, 2200 m.).

Now Orthotomus cucullatus meisei (Stresemann, 1931) . See White and Bruce, 1986: 350–351, and del Hoyo et al., 2006: 423.

HOLOTYPE: AMNH 292894 , adult male, collected at 2200 m in the Latimojong Mountains , 03.30S, 120.05E ( USBGN, 1982a), Sulawesi Island , Indonesia, on 14 June 1930, by Gerd Heinrich (no. 418) on the Heinrich Expedition 1930.

COMMENTS: Stresemann gave Heinrich’s unique field number of the holotype in the original description. Later, Stresemann (1940: 102) noted that he had six specimens. Of the five paratypes, three came to AMNH: AMNH 292895, male, and 292896 and 292897, females. The remaining paratypes are probably in ZMB.
