Scientific Name Notes:The voucher specimen for this code was called B. aethalea in Sainsbury et al (1985). Das & Nelson (1996) placed B. aethalea in the synonymy of B. platyrhynchus. Then Thompson & Suttkus (2002) resurrected the name B. philippinus from the synonymy of B. platyrhynchus based on this voucher specimen and other material.
