Now Pardalotus punctatus punctatus (Shaw, 1792) . See Salomonsen, 1967: 203, Schodde and Mason, 1999: 122–124 (and references therein), and Woinarski, 2008: 400.

HOLOTYPE: AMNH 698836 , adult female, collected in Denmark forests, 34.54S, 117.25E (Times Atlas), Wilson Inlet , Western Australia, Australia, on 17 May 1910, by F. Lawson Whitlock. From the Mathews Collection (5474) via the Rothschild Collection.

COMMENTS: Mathews cited his catalog number of the holotype in the original description and gave the range of whitlocki as southwest Australia. The following specimens are paratypes: collected by Whitlock at Wilson Inlet, AMNH 698827 , male, 2 January 1910, AMNH 698828 (Mathews no. 4663), female, 28 February 1910, AMNH 698829 (4664), immature, 18 March 1910 ; collected by T. Carter at Albany, AMNH 698830 (2888), male, 10 March 1905, AMNH 698831 (2886), male, 8 March 1905, AMNH 698832 (2887), male, 10 March 1905, AMNH 698833 (2885), female, 8 March 1905, AMNH 698834 (2884), female, 10 March 1905 ; collected by Whitlock at Mondump Creek , Stirling Range, AMNH 698835 , unsexed, 21 September 1910 ; collector unknown, at Wannaroo, Perth, AMNH 698837 (2882), female, January 1907. AMNH 698827 is accepted as a paratype even though not located in Mathews’ catalog because other specimens from Wilson Inlet collected by Whitlock in December 1909 and January 1910 were cataloged, indicative of batches received before the publication of whitlocki .
