[QUOTE="Björn Bergenholtz, post: 2995187, member: 113430"] Here´s another small task, initially, for our French knowing friends! That might lead us to Germany … or Eastern Europe. It´s regarding the Josephine's Lorikeet [I]Charmosyna josefinae[/I] FINSCH 1872 a k a "Josephine's Lory " This Lorikeets was described for the first time, as "[I]Trichoglossus Josefinae[/I]" in: [B]Finsch, O[/B]. 1872. Description d’une nouvelle espèce de Perruche: Trichoglossus Josefinae, appertenant au sous-genre Charmosyna. Atti della Società Italiana Di Scienze Naturale E Museo Civico Di Storia Naturali 15: 427-428. ([COLOR="DarkRed"]Attached[/COLOR]) [COLOR="Blue"]But the question is: who was she?[/COLOR] And how did she spell her name? Compare with this Birds name in other languages, as for example: [B]French[/B]: [I]Lori de Joséphine[/I] [B]German[/B]: [I]Josefinenlori [/I] [B]Italian[/B]: [I]Lori di Giuseppina[/I] (or "[I]Lorichetto di Josephine[/I]") [B]Spanish[/B]: [I]Lori de Josefina [/I] Is there any word whatsoever telling us or hinting in either direction of whom she was?
