Antipodes snipe : ウィキペディア英語版 | Antipodes snipe
The Antipodes snipe or Antipodes Island snipe (''Coenocorypha aucklandica meinertzhagenae'') is an isolated subspecies of the Subantarctic snipe that is endemic to the Antipodes Islands, a subantarctic island group south of New Zealand in the Southern Ocean. ==Taxonomy and etymology== The Antipodes snipe was first collected by Fairchild in 1887, and by Andreas Reischek in 1888.〔 It was first described by Walter Rothschild in 1893 as ''Gallinago tristrami'' in honour of Henry Baker Tristram. However, doubts were raised about the provenance of the type specimen, which appeared to be from the Auckland Islands, and Rothschild made a new description in 1927, recognising the Antipodes Island form as a subspecies of ''Coenocorypha aucklandica''. The subspecific name honours British ornithologist Annie Meinertzhagen, the second wife of ornithologist Richard Meinertzhagen.〔Hartert (1927).〕
