Description

COMMENTS: Rothschild had a single specimen. While a specimen of this form in MNHN was said to come from inland of Yaour (Waar) Island, this was not the case with Rothschild’s specimen. Van Renesse van Duivenbode had many bases of operation along the north coast of New Guinea from which he regularly collected not only natural history items but any products of the country that were marketable.
