- Ptilotis analoga vicina Rothschild and Hartert Ptilotis analoga vicina Rothschild and Hartert, 1912: 203 (Sudest Islands). Now Meliphaga vicina (Rothschild and Hartert, 1912). See Rand, 1936: 21, Coates, 1990: 294, and Higgins et al., 2008: 591–592. HOLOTYPE: AMNH 695918, adult male, collected on Tacuta (5 Tagula 5 Sudest) Island, 11.30S, 153.30E (PNG, 1984), Louisiade Archipelago, Milne Bay Province, Papua New Guinea, on 8 April 1898, by A.S. Meek (no. 1696). From the Rothschild Collection. COMMENTS: Rothschild and Hartert cited Meek’s unique field number of the holotype in the original description but did not mention other specimens. However, Hartert (1898a: 527), in his account of Meek’s 1898 collection from Tacuta, reported under Ptilotis notata that Meek sent a series of seven specimens. Only six of those specimens came to AMNH with the Rothschild Collection. The five paratypes in AMNH are: males, AMNH 695917 (Meek no. 1723), AMNH 695919 (1712); females, AMNH 695927– 695929 (1603, 1743, 1785).
