Accentor talifuensis Rippon Prunella collaris ripponi Hartert

Accentor talifuensis Rippon, 1906b: 19 (E. of Talifu, W. Yunnan).

Prunella collaris ripponi Hartert, 1910a: 766 (Gyi­dziu­shán, 10 000 ft.).

Now Prunella collaris nipalensis (Blyth, 1843) . See Vaurie, 1959: 210.

HOLOTYPE: AMNH 585025 About AMNH , sex unknown, collected on 5 April 1902, at Gyi­dziu­shan, 10,000 feet, east of Ta­li (5 Talifu), 258459N, 1008069E (Times Atlas), northern Yunnan, China, by George Rippon. From the Rothschild Collection.

COMMENTS: Apparently Rippon (1906b: 19) described Accentor talifuensis from one unsexed adult specimen collected ‘‘E. of Talifu, W. Yunnan’’. Hartert (1910a: 766), in his description of P. c. ripponi, did not mention Rippon’s earlier description, noting only that the type of his ripponi was in the Rothschild Collection and collected by Rippon on 5 April 1902 at Gyi­dziu­shán, 10,000 feet. The locality data from both descriptions appear together on the original label, and AMNH 585025 is the only Rippon specimen that came to AMNH with the Rothschild Collection. Thus, it seems that this specimen is the holotype of both names, with A. talifuensis being older. Hartert (1910a: 766) also spoke of having a series from east of Talifu; however, no additional specimens collected early enough are now in AMNH.

Accentor erythropygius Swinhoe Accentor erythropygius Swinhoe, 1870c: 124 (Ke­

meih, Prefecture of Seuen­hwafoo).

Now Prunella collaris erythropygia (Swinhoe,

1870). See Vaurie, 1959: 210, and Cheng, 1987:

564.

HOLOTYPE: AMNH 585068 About AMNH , adult male, collected on 26 September 1868, at Kemeih , China, by Robert Swinhoe. From the Rothschild Collection.

COMMENTS: Only one specimen was secured, although others were seen later. Cheng (1987: 564) placed this type locality ‘‘between Zhangjiakou [5 Chang­chia­k’ou, 408519N, 1148599E, Times Atlas] and Beijing [5 Pei­ching, 398559N, 1168259E, Times Atlas], China’’.

Prunella strophiata sirotensis Koelz Prunella strophiata sirotensis Koelz, 1939: 67

(Sirotai, Afghanistan).

Now Prunella strophiata jerdoni (Brooks, 1872) .

See Vaurie, 1959: 212, and Dickinson, 2003:

738.

HOLOTYPE: AMNH 467183 About AMNH , adult male, collected at Saroti (5 Sirotai), Afghanistan, on 17 June 1937, by Walter Koelz.

COMMENTS: Koelz listed the above male and a female paratype (called ‘‘topotype’’ by Koelz), AMNH 467182, collected on 18 June 1937. Koelz was at Saroti on 17–19 June and in both Saroti and Gardez on 20 June. Gardez is at 338379N, 698099E (Times Atlas).

[ Accentor modularis occidentalis Hartert ]

Hartert (1910e: 313) described occidentalis based on a single specimen collected on the Tring estate. Later, Hartert (1920: 503) added that the holotype was a male, collected on 10 April 1893, by N.C. Rothschild. It was cataloged as AMNH 450916 and on 21 September 1936 was one of the British Isles types from the Rothschild Collection that was presented to the BMNH, Reg. no. 1936.10.15.10 ( Warren and Harrison, 1971: 397). Now Prunella modularis occidentalis Hartert, 1910 ( Cramp, 1988: 548) .
