Ptilotis fusca dingi Mathews

Ptilotis fusca dingi Mathews, 1912a: 404 (South Australia).

Now Lichenostomus fuscus fuscus (Gould, 1837) View in CoL . See Salomonsen, 1967: 377, Schodde and Mason, 1999: 251–252, Christidis and Boles, 2008: 185–191, and Higgins et al., 2008: 607–608.

HOLOTYPE: AMNH 694541 View Materials , adult female, collected on Murray Flats , 14 miles west of Blanchetown, 8 ft, 34.21S, 139.38E (Times Atlas), South Australia, Australia, on 30 May 1911, by J.B. Cleland (no. 12). From the Mathews Collection (no. 8950) via the Rothschild Collection. GoogleMaps

COMMENTS: Mathews cited his catalog number of the holotype in the original description, giving the range of the form as ‘‘ South Australia, Victoria.’’ The holotype bears in addition to the original label, Mathews and Rothschild type labels and a Mathews ‘‘Figured’’ label, indicating that the specimen was the model for Mathews (1924: pl. 529, upper fig., opp. p. 438, text p. 439), where it is confirmed as the type of dingi. This is apparently the ‘‘specimen (a)’’ for which Cleland (1912: 16) reported the stomach contents. A paratype is AMNH 694560 (Mathews no. 3164), female, collected at Stawell, Victoria on 29 September 1908. AMNH 694548–694550 are possible paratypes, collected at Melton, Victoria, in June 1908 and 1910 by L.G. Chandler, but I did not find them in Mathews catalog. Other specimens were either collected after the publication of dingi or were never in the Mathews Collection.
