HOLOTYPE: AMNH 570078 About AMNH , adult male, collected at Lagoa das Furnas, 500 ft, 37°30′N, 25°20′W (Times Atlas), São Miguel, Azores, on 16 March 1903, by W. R. OgilvieGrant (no. 159). From the Rothschild Collection. GoogleMaps

COMMENTS: The AMNH number of the holotype is cited in the original description. Vaurie (1957: 13) stated that patriciae was restricted to the Azores and that he had examined 39 specimens, including the type. Paratypes are: AMNH 168693–168696, 168898, 168899, 222319–222330, 377967bis, 570062–570077, and 570079–570081. I did not find AMNH 570065 in the collection. Not included in these paratypes are AMNH 787755–787758, specimens exchanged to AMNH from ZFMK in 1962.
