Muscicapa westermanni mayri Ripley, 1952: 73 (Ramelan, Timor Island).

Now Ficedula westermanni mayri ( Ripley, 1952) View in CoL . See del Hoyo et al., 2006: 142.

HOLOTYPE: AMNH 346056 About AMNH , adult female, collected on Mount Ramelau (5 Ramelan), 2000 m, 08.55S, 125.25E ( USBGN, 1982a), Timor Island, Indonesia, on 1 May 1932, by Georg Stein (no. 4162). GoogleMaps

COMMENTS: Ripley cited the AMNH number of the holotype in the original description. He did not mention other specimens, and because he borrowed specimens for the description ( Ripley, 1952: 71), there is no way of knowing which additional ones he might have examined.

Mayr (1944a: 161–162) discussed Stein’s Wetar and Timor specimens under Muscicapula melanoleuca ; White and Bruce (1986: 357–358) did not recognize subspecies in this species.
