Now Smicrornis brevirostris occidentalis Bonaparte, 1850 View in CoL . See Mayr, 1986b: 443, and Schodde and Mason, 1999: 176–178.

HOLOTYPE: AMNH 606253 About AMNH , adult female, collected in the Stirling Range , 34.23S, 117.50E ( USBGN, 1957b), Western Australia, Australia, on 8 July 1911, by F.L. Whitlock. From the Mathews Collection (no. 10524) via the Rothschild Collection. GoogleMaps

COMMENTS: Mathews cited his catalog number of the holotype in the original description. The specimen bears, in addition to Whitlock’s label, Mathews and Rothschild type labels.

Mayr (1986b: 443) recognized S. b. stirlingi; Schodde and Mason (1999: 176–178) considered S. b. occidentalis Bonaparte, 1850 an available name, valid for southwest and south-central populations of weebills, and included stirlingi within their range.
