Rhipidura rufiventris perneglecta Hartert, 1918b: 59 (Taam) .

Now Rhipidura rufiventris assimilis G.R. Gray, 1858 View in CoL . See Schodde and Mathews, 1977: 23, White and Bruce, 1986: 373–375, and del Hoyo et al., 2006: 238.

HOLOTYPE: AMNH 650998 About AMNH , adult male, collected on Taam Island , 05.45S, 132.12E (Times Atlas), Tajandu Group , Kai Islands , Indonesia, on 22 July 1899, by Heinrich Kühn (no. 1352). From the Rothschild Collection. GoogleMaps

COMMENTS: Hartert cited Kühn’s unique field number of the holotype in the original description. He had 12 specimens from Taam, Kilsuin (5 Kilsoein), and Kur (5 Koer) islands in the Tajandu Group. The 11 paratypes are: AMNH 650991–650997 and 650999–651002. These paratypes include the holotype of R. r. tiandu Hartert (see below), and the same 12 specimens served as the type series of both names. Hartert (1924a: 208) called attention to this ‘‘silly mistake’’.
