- Ptilotis praecipua Hartert Ptilotis praecipua Hartert, 1897c: 370 (5000– 6000 feet high between Mounts Musgrave and Scratchley). Now Ptiloprora guisei guisei (De Vis, 1894). See Salomonsen, 1967: 414, Coates, 1990: 268–270, and Higgins et al., 2008: 658. LECTOTYPE: AMNH 696629, adult male, collected between Mount Musgrave, 08.55S, 147.25E (USBGN, 1943), and Mount Scratchley, 08.40S, 147.30E (USBGN, 1943), 5000–6000 ft, Owen Stanley Mountains, Central Province, Papua New Guinea, by A.S. Anthony. From the Rothschild Collection. COMMENTS: Hartert did not designate a type in the original description but had one female and more than one male specimen. Later, Rothschild and Hartert (1903b: 443) listed as the type a specimen with the above data collected by Anthony, thereby designating it the lectotype; this specimen is the only one in the type series on which Anthony’s name appears. It bears a Rothschild type label. Paralectotypes are: AMNH 696630, female, collected between Mounts Musgrave and Scratchley, 5–6000 ft; AMNH 696631, male, collected between Mount Musgrave and ‘‘ Mt. Stanley. ’’ I consider ‘‘ Mt. Stanley’ ’ a lapsus; although there is no original label, the ‘‘make’’ of the skins is similar. It seems unlikely that a third skin, now AMNH 696632, of similar ‘‘make,’’ collected in the Owen Stanley Mountains, 3–5000 ft in 1897, could have been available to Hartert when P. praecipua was published in August 1897.
