Whitlocka wellsi striata Mathews

Whitlocka wellsi striata Mathews, 1923d: 15 (Shaw River, Northern Mid-west Australia).

Now Climacteris melanurus wellsi Ogilvie-Grant, 1909 View in CoL . See Whittell and Serventy, 1948: 88, Schodde and Mason, 1999: 79–80, and Noske, 2007b: 660.

HOLOTYPE: AMNH 685119 View Materials , adult female, collected on the Shaw River , Western Australia, Australia, in May 1908, by F.L[awson Whitlock]. From the Mathews Collection via the Rothschild Collection.

COMMENTS: In the original description, Mathews only gave the collecting locality of the type. AMNH 685119 bears in addition to Whitlock’s original label, a Rothschild collection label, an AMNH type label, and a ‘‘Figured’’ label, indicating that it was illustrated in Mathews (1923b: pl. 503, middle figure, opp. p. 128, text p. 130), where the figured bird, collected on the Shaw River in May 1908, was confirmed as the type of Whitlocka wellsi striata . I did not find this specimen in Mathews’ catalog, but it is the only Mathews specimen of this form from the Shaw River that came to AMNH. Should another specimen be found, then Mathews’ (1923b: 130) statement that the the above specimen was the type of striata is a designation of a lectotype.

Whittell and Serventy (1948: 88) equate the Shaw River locality with Nullagine, 21.56S, 120.06E (Times Atlas).
