Pyrrhula waterstradti Hartert, 1902h: 69 (Mount Tahan (5000–7000 feet) in North Pahang, Eastern Malay Peninsula).

Now Pyrrhula nipalensis waterstradti Hartert, 1902 . See Hartert, 1902e: 577; Hartert, 1919a: 161; Howell et al., 1968: 294; Dickinson, 2003: 756; Wells, 2007: 721–723; Clement, 2010: 607.

HOLOTYPE: AMNH 714783, adult male, collected on Mount Tahan (Gunong Tahan, as on label), 5000–7000 ft, 04.34N, 102.17E (Times atlas), Pahang, Malaysia, in October 1901, by J. Waterstradt. From the Rothschild Collection.

COMMENTS: Only the adult male was described in the original description of waterstradti, although Hartert mentioned that a ‘‘pair in moult’’ had been obtained. The second specimen was a female, collected at the same time and is the paratype: AMNH 714784. Hartert (1902e: 577) included this form in his report on Waterstradt’s entire collection, and there he described the female.
