Dickinson, E.C..

Although the wrappers appear to list the contents they are occasionally inaccurate; in addition some papers that were published in two parts were explained in the wrappers but there are a few cases where they were not. With the help of a full set of wrappers, the backs of which were sometimes used to complete the text, it is possible to explain all the inconsistencies (except two, one in Vol. 11 and one in Vol. 29).

Systematic notes on Asian birds. 1. A review of the russet bush-warbler Bradypterus seebohmi (Ogilvie-Grant, 1895)

Dickinson, E.C.; Rasmussen, P.C.; Round, P.D.; Rozendaal, F.G..

The bush-warbler Bradypterus mandelli (Brooks, 1875) was described from Sikkim, and numerous specimens from India were identified with it, but it was synonymised with the brown bush-warbler Bradypterus luteoventris (Hodgson, 1845) in 1881. In 1952, east Asian populations were grouped under the name of the Luzon form of the russet bush-warbler, Bradypterus seebohmi (Ogilvie-Grant, 1895). This taxonomy, however, failed to associate the Indian form and its available name mandelli, which received limited usage until 1919, with seebohmi, a matter reviewed and corrected herein. Specimens prove that mandelli has long been known from India, Bhutan, and Myanmar (Burma). The Thai population, previously placed in idoneus (Riley, 1940), belongs instead with the...

Systematic notes on Asian birds. 10. The “Nouveau recueil de planches coloriées” of Temminck & Laugier (1820-1839): the little known impression of 1850

Sayako, N.; Dickinson, E.C..

A copy of the reported 1850 impression of the “Nouveau recueil de planches coloriées” that has recently come to light suggests that bound copies would be virtually indistinguishable from the first edition (1820-1839) despite the different publisher. In spite of clear statements by the publisher, we believe there must be doubts whether any part of such an edition, other than the wrappers, was specially reprinted. The wrappers found with this copy confirm that during the appearance of the first edition generic wrappers were created, which did not have details of the contents on the back.

Dickinson, E.C.; Dekker, R.W.R.J.; Eck, S.; Somadikarta, S.; Kalyakin, M.; Loskot, V.; Morioka, H.; Violani, C.; Voisin, C..

A list is provided of the 165 names applied to identifiable Asian forms of species of lark (family Alaudidae). This list summarises our collective knowledge on the whereabouts of types for these names; where our information does not include reliable data we provide notes relating to the deficit and to stimulate others to send us additional data or to suggest sources of information. In two appendices we deal with certain old names that we judge to be indeterminate and we designate a lectotype for Eremophila sibirica (Swinhoe, 1871b).

A list of the 110 names applied to Asian forms of species of swallows and martins (family Hirundinidae) is provided. This list provides information on the whereabouts of a type; where our information does not include reliable data we provide notes to explain the deficit and to stimulate others to offer additional data or sources of information.

Systematic notes on Asian birds. 15. Nomenclatural issues concerning the common sand martin Riparia riparia (Linnaeus, 1758) and the pale sand martin R. diluta (Sharpe & Wyatt, 1893), with a new synonymy

Loskot, V.M.; Dickinson, E.C..

A female of Riparia diluta in the ZISP collection and collected by Severtsov, which has sometimes been supposed to belong to the type series, is found to be this species but not the same subspecies and only a topotype. We designate a lectotype for R. diluta as Severtsov’s material was composite. Names introduced by Zarudny (1916) are evaluated and the synonymy of these two species is corrected to take into account the findings of both Zarudny and later workers.

Systematic notes on Asian birds. 16. The type of Pitta baudii Müller & Schlegel, 1839 (Pittidae)

Dekker, R.W.R.J.; Dickinson, E.C..

Further research into the type of Pitta baudii Müller & Schlegel, 1839, showed that Dickinson et al. (2000) erred in referring to the National Museum of Natural History in Leiden as the collection where a type specimen of this taxon is kept. The correction of the date of description to 1839 has revealed that the four selected specimens cannot be types. The museum received them too late. The confusion has been traced to one of the four being labelled “type”. This we find refers to the illustration by J. Wolf published in June 1845. The 1839 plate was suppressed and the original type relative to this taxon as illustrated therein has not been traced; a depiction of this is therefore of considerable importance. The suppressed plate has been located and is...

LeCroy, M.; Dickinson, E.C..

We have examined the types of 41 nominal taxa based mostly on five bird collections made by George Forrest in Yunnan and described by Lord Walter Rothschild. In some cases, there is a need to designate lectotypes, which we do. We also clarify which types are in Tring and which are in New York (correcting an error previously published). Birds from Forrest’s 1930-1931 Yunnan expedition seem not to have been written up. A map is provided.

Dickinson, E.C.; Morioka, H.; Walters, M..

The Natural History Museum, Tring, holds type material from Japan upon which names were based by Gould, Gurney, Hargitt, Ingram, Mathews, Oates, Seebohm, Sharpe, Swinhoe, Tristram and Vigors. In most cases selected types, which are not necessarily lectotypes, have been listed by Warren (1966) or Warren & Harrison (1971), but we provide here information that has come to light during preparatory work on a list of types of all Japanese taxa. We have located types for a number of taxa for which they had not been identified or segregated, and lectotypes are here designated for three taxa to safeguard current nomenclatural practice.

A list of nearly 300 names applied to Asian forms of species of cuckoo-shrikes and minivets and their allies (family Campephagidae) is provided. This list provides information on the whereabouts of a type; where our information does not include reliable data we provide notes to explain the deficit and to stimulate others to offer additional data or sources of information. Lectotypes are designated for the following: Phoenicornis affinis McClelland, 1840; Muscicapa flammea Forster, 1781; Phoenicornis elegans Horsfield, 1840.

Dickinson, E.C.; Gregory, S.M.S..

We conclude that the reasons hitherto given for non-recognition of the generic name Ixos in the family Pycnonotidae were erroneous. The broad genus employed by the proponents of that view is now considered too broad, and we concur with Sibley & Monroe (1990) that several generic names must be used, including Ixos. No genus can be constructed except around the name of its type species, and no other species within such a genus may be the type species of a generic name that is older. The arrangement offered by Sibley & Monroe (1990) was flawed because this rule was not observed. We therefore offer a complete revision. We believe it to be desirable to recognise several more genera than those recognised by Sibley & Monroe (1990), at least until we...

The taxonomic treatment of Asian taxa of bulbuls (Pycnonotidae) is discussed with explanations of some historical changes.

A list of about 370 names applied to Asian forms of species of bulbul (family Pycnonotidae) is presented. This list provides information on the whereabouts of a type; where our information does not include reliable data we provide notes to explain the deficit and to stimulate others to offer additional data or sources of information. A lectotypes is designated for P[ycnonotus]. Yourdini [sic] “(Homb. & Jacq.)” G.R. Gray, 1847. Comments are also made on previous lectotype designations for Hypsipetes rufigularis Sharpe, 1877, and Criniger simplex Wallace, 1862, and on the need to designate one for Pycnonotus rufocaudatus Eyton, 1845.
