  • Ploceus passerinus infortunatus Hartert Ploceus passerinus infortunatus Hartert, 1902b: 578 (Sungei Lebeh). Now Ploceus philippinus infortunatus Hartert, 1902. See Hartert, 1919: 137; Moreau and Greenway, 1962: 53; Dickinson, 2003: 723; Wells, 2007: 683–686; and Craig, 2010: 169. HOLOTYPE: AMNH 722675, adult male, collected on the Sungai Lebir (= Sungei Lebeh), 04.56N, 102.29E (BirdLife International, 2001: 2635), Malaysia, on 19 May 1901, by collectors for John Waterstradt. From the Rothschild Collection. COMMENTS: In the original description, Hartert designated as type of infortunatus the single specimen collected by Waterstradt on the Sungai Lebir and gave the range of the form as ‘‘ Malay Peninsula ...to Tenasserim and Burma, Sumatra’ ’; but he doubted the collecting locality of Sumatran specimens in the BMNH. The following paratypes are in AMNH: Myanmar (= Burma), Tenassarim, Mergui, AMNH 722684, female, 22 June 1875, Davison (no. 694, sales lot no. 6616e); Tavoy, AMNH 722685, male, 2 May 1874, Davison (694, 6616g); AMNH 722686, male, 26 April, 1874, Davison (694, 6616f); AMNH 722687, female, 11 August 1891, Bingham; Bilin Valley, AMNH 722688, male, 7 August 1892, Bingham. British Burmah, AMNH 722693, unsexed, no date, Davison (694, 6616c). The following two specimens I have also considered paratypes for, although not dated, they bear the same sales lot number and were undoubtedly acquired by Rothschild at the same time as the others: [Malacca skin], AMNH 722681, 722682, juvenile males, Bartlett Coll. (6616b, 6616a).
