• "Sp. 128. Ptilonopus geminus, nov. sp. ... Lo Schlegel considera gli individui di Jobi, simili a quello sopra descritto, semplicemente come una razza del P. coronulatus, G. R. Gr. delle Isole Aru, dal quale il P. geminus differesce per la calotta non di colore violaceo pallido, ma bianco-grigio con una lievissima sfumatura violaceo; per la fascia gialla lungo il mezzo della gola un poco più distinta; per la macchia lilacina sul mezzo dell' addome molto più pallida, di forma trasversale e circondata da un' area di color bruno-zafferano; per quest' ultimo carattere il P. geminus somiglia al P. trigeminus" (Salvadori 1875) (subsp.
