HOLOTYPE: AMNH 597898 View Materials , adult male, collected on the spit off Kingscote , 35.40S, 137.39E (Times Atlas), Kangaroo Island, South Australia, Australia, on 10 December 1911, by S.A. White (no. 473). From the Mathews Collection (no. 10255) via the Rothschild Collection. GoogleMaps
COMMENTS: Mathews cited his catalog number in the original description, and the specimen bears Mathews and Rothschild type labels. Paratypes in AMNH are: AMNH 597899 (Mathews no. 10253), male, AMNH 597900 (10254), male, and AMNH 597901 (10373), female, collected at Kingscote, Kangaroo Island, on 10 December 1911. One paratype is in SAMA (P. Horton and B. Blaylock, personal commun.). AMNH 597902–597905, collected at Birchmores Lagoon, Kangaroo Island, on 17 April 1912 are not paratypes, as they were collected after the 2 April 1912 publication date of M. g. halmaturinus.
Watson et al. (1986a: 43) recognized only M. g. gramineus for all Australian birds, but Schodde and Mason (1999: 703–704) recognized three, with Kangaroo Island birds included in M. gramineus goulburni .
