Bowyeria boweri kuranda Mathews

Bowyeria boweri kuranda Mathews, 1916a: 61 (Kuranda, North Queensland).

Now Colluricincla boweri Ramsay, 1885 . See Ford, 1979, Schodde and Mason, 1999: 452–453, and Boles, 2007: 431.

HOLOTYPE: AMNH 656923 , unsexed, collected at Kuranda , 16.46S, 145.37E (Times Atlas), Queensland, Australia, on 20 May 1910, by A.P. or F.P. Dodd (no. 1). From the Mathews Collection (no. 5015) via the Rothschild Collection.

COMMENTS: Mathews apparently had this single specimen from Kuranda, which he had cataloged under Pinarolestes ‘‘ rufigaste r’’; no range was mentioned. I was unable to determine the significance of the number ‘‘844’’ that appears on Dodd’s label in pencil. This specimen was probably collected by Alan P. Dodd; it may have been his first specimen; he was 14 years old at the time (b. 1896, Whittell, 1954: 203).
