摘要

Based on unpublished letters written by A. S. Meek to the staff of Rothschild's Museum at Tring, the collection of the only known specimens of the Solomons (or Choiseul) Crested Pigeon Microgoura meeki Rothschild, 1904, on the island of Choiseul is discussed. The question of whether six or seven adults were collected by Meek is resolved, and notes are provided on the habitat and supposed distribution of the bird, which is now considered extinct. Details are given of subsequent searches for M. meeki,in particular by the Whitney South Sea Expedition, in the form of extracts from unpublished journals held in the Department of Ornithology archives at the American Museum of Natural History, New York. The unique egg, a skin of M. meeki, sections from Meek's letters, and a Whitney map showing the areas of Choiseul that were searched, are illustrated for the first time.
