Description
Oriolus albiloris Ogilvie-Grant
Oriolus albiloris Ogilvie-Grant, 1894a: 49 (mountains of Northern Luzon).
Now Oriolus steerii albiloris Ogilvie-Grant, 1894. See Ogilvie-Grant, 1894c: 504–505; Hartert, 1919: 134; Greenway, 1962: 126; Dickinson et al., 1991: 293; Kennedy et al., 2000: 240–241; Dickinson, 2004: 50–52; Dickinson et al., 2004a: 68; and Walther and Jones, 2008: 721.
HOLOTYPE: AMNH 670849, female, collected at Sablan, 16.30N, 120.29E (Dickinson et al., 1991: 424), Benguet, northern Luzon Island, Philippines, on 18 March 1894, by John Whitehead (no. 333). From the Rothschild Collection.
COMMENTS: When albiloris was described, Ogilvie-Grant gave only a very brief description with no indication of how many specimens he had, and the type locality, ‘‘mountains of Northern Luzon,’’ was given only in brief introductory remarks by the editor ‘‘R.B.S[harpe].’’ Later, when he published on the entire collection, Ogilvie-Grant said that he had a single female specimen. Whitehead knew he had a new species as he had marked his label of this specimen as ‘‘Type of ♀ JW.’’ Later, he (Whitehead, 1899: 101) noted that this unique specimen was obtained at 2000 ft. Rothschild bought a large portion of Whitehead’s collections from Whitehead or from his family after his death, and this specimen was probably thus ac- quired by Rothschild. Hartert (1919: 134) had included Whitehead’s number of the holotype in his Rothschild type list.
