[QUOTE="Björn Bergenholtz, post: 3297474, member: 113430"] I assume the same spelling also would apply on: [B][I]henrici [/I][/B] ● in the doubtful taxon "[I]Heliangelus henrici[/I]" BOUCARD 1891, [URL="http://www.biodiversitylibrary.org/item/127790#page/60/mode/1up"][U]here[/U][/URL], ([COLOR="Blue"][B]not[/B][/COLOR] listed in the [I]HBW Alive Key[/I]!) a k a "Henry's Sun-angel". Also see [URL="https://books.google.se/books?id=xpUBocGB12YC&pg=PA416&lpg=PA416&dq=%22Heliangelus+henrici%22+Boucard&source=bl&ots=X_XzCBxYnd&sig=hM8Txu1SClDj8i5Vl5m9JfU4KsU&hl=sv&sa=X&ved=0CBwQ6AEwAGoVChMI_K6t5OC_yAIViFksCh1G0gd9#v=onepage&q=%22Heliangelus%20henrici%22%20Boucard&f=false"][U]here[/U][/URL], on the same bird: "Known only from the type held at Tring, a male collected by Henry Whitely …". Compare with the same Vol. 1., No. 7 (July 1, 1891): pp. 52-53, [URL="http://www.biodiversitylibrary.org/item/127790#page/108/mode/1up"][U]here[/U][/URL], where the same "Henry[B] Whit[U]ely[/U][/B]" is mentioned as the discoverer of yet another two Hummingbirds; the "[I]Caliplox Roraimæ[/I]" and "[I]Hylocharis Guianensis[/I]". And yet another Hummingbird, this time described by John Gould: [B][I]whitelyana[/I][/B] ● in the subspecies [I]Heliodoxa schreibersii whitelyana[/I] GOULD 1872 ([URL="http://www.biodiversitylibrary.org/item/81231#page/466/mode/1up"][U]here[/U][/URL]) as"[I]Iolæma Whitelyana[/I]" a k a "Whitely's Hummingbird", later also as [I]I[U]ono[/U]læma whitelyana[/I] ELLIOT 1878 or as [I]I[U]onola[/U]ima whitelyana[/I] EUDES-DESLONGCHAMPS 1880 alt. [I]I[U]onolæ[/U]ma whitelyana [/I]GOULD 1887 ([URL="https://archive.org/stream/monographTrochiSupplementGoul#page/n67/mode/2up"][U]here[/U][/URL]) = [B]Henry W[/B]… [Junior] ----- Also consider the Mr. "[B]Whitely[/B]", mentioned in Martin's (Taphrospilus's) fairly recent thread [I]turneri – The mystery Mr. Turner[/I] (this time in the text for "[I]Merganetta turneri[/I]" [URL="http://gdz.sub.uni-goettingen.de/dms/load/img/?PPN=PPN633199168&DMDID=DMDLOG_0013&LOGID=LOG_0015&PHYSID=PHYS_0411"][U]here[/U][/URL]), or this Summary BDL page, [URL="http://www.biodiversitylibrary.org/search?searchTerm=Whitely#/sections"][U]here[/U][/URL]. On top of that; see the German wiki-page for Henry [B]Whitely [/B]([URL="https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry_Whitely"][U]here[/U][/URL]) or the (maybe even more important) long (and somewhat confusing , in spelling sometimes contradicting) investigation on [I]Rootschat [/I]regarding "Henry [B]Whitely [/B][of/from] Woolwich"([URL="http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php?topic=468555.18"][U]here[/U][/URL]), the latter started by Birdforum member Justin Jansen! They all do point toward the spelling [B]Whit[U]ely[/U][/B], but up till recently the [I]HBW Alive Key [/I]had him as: "Henry Whit[COLOR="Blue"]eley[/COLOR], Jr. (surname frequently spelled Whitely)", hence this whole thread.
