Turnix maculatusVieillot, 1819, Nouv. Dict. Nat. ed. 35: 47 (Assam). Turnix maculosusTemminck, 1815. See Hellmayr 1914: 94-96, van den Hoek Ostende et al. 1997: 53 and Voisin and Voisin 2015: 54 and 57 - Now.
Type materials. The three SYNTYPES are the same as Hemipodius maculosusTemminck.
Comments. Vieillot refers to the Baudin expedition and an Australian orgin, but not to the number of specimens examined. Vieillot referred to Temminck (1815) for the birds he examined. The three syntypes form part of the type series of Hemipodius maculosusTemminck 1815, as well. The type locality is erroneous (Assam), and therefore corrected and restricted to: West-Timor near Kupang Bay (article 76a.2.A (ICZN 1999)). Vieillot, described this species and named it Turnix maculatusor 'spotted'( Jobling 2017).
