Description
Chibia carbonaria dejecta Hartert
Chibia carbonaria dejecta Hartert, 1898: 522 (Sudest Island in the Louisiade Archipelago).
Now Dicrurus bracteatus carbonarius Bonaparte, 1850. Hartert, 1919: 132; Vaurie, 1949b: 283– 288; 1962: 149; Coates, 1990: 143–146; Schodde and Mason, 1999: 490–492; Dickinson, 2003: 493; and Rocamora and Yeatman-Berthelot, 2009: 216–217.
LECTOTYPE: AMNH 672533, adult male, collected on Tagula (= Sudest) Island, 11.30S, 153.30E (PNG general reference map, 1984), Louisiade Archipelago, Milne Bay Province, Papua New Guinea, on 24 April 1898, by Albert S. Meek (no. 1788). From the Rothschild Collection.
COMMENTS: In the original description, Hartert did not designate a type but based his description on the four males collected by Meek in 1898. Hartert (1919: 132), by listing the specimen bearing Meek’s field number 1788 as the type, designated it the lectotype. The three paralectotypes, males, collected in 1898, are: Tagula: AMNH 672534 (Meek no. 1749), 16 April; AMNH 672537 (1623), 29 March; AMNH 672538 (1782), 22 April.
A typographical error in Hartert (1898: 521) indicated that Meek collected on Tagula in 1889, but this is incorrect; his collection was made in April 1898. His second collection on Tagula was not made until 1916, after the description of this form. For the date of 1850 for Bonaparte’s description of carbonarius, see Dickinson et al. (2011: 75–76).
