Description

Ptilotis ornata munna Mathews

Ptilotis ornata munna Mathews, 1912a: 410 (West Australia (Stirling Ranges)).

Now Lichenostomus ornatus (Gould, 1838). See Salomonsen, 1967: 383, Schodde and Mason, 1999: 248, Christidis and Boles, 2008: 185–191, and Higgins et al., 2008: 606.

HOLOTYPE: AMNH 695324, adult male, collected at Lake Balicup, 34.16S, 117.47E (USBGN, 1957), Stirling Range, Western Australia, Australia, on 12 September 1910, by F.L. W[hitlock]. From the Mathews Collection (no. 6175) via the Rothschild Collection.

COMMENTS: Mathews cited his catalog number of the holotype in the original description and gave the range of munna as ‘‘ Western Australia (Stirling Ranges).’’ The holotype bears in addition to Whitlock’s label, Mathews and Rothschild type labels. Only the three specimens collected by Whitlock in the Stirling Range in 1910 were in Mathews’ collection when munna was described. Other specimens collected in 1911 were not cataloged by Mathews until 24 February 1912, after the publication of munna on 31 January 1912. Paratypes are: Lake Balicup, Stirling Range, AMNH 695323 (Mathews no. 6174), female, 12 September 1910; Stirling Range, AMNH 695332 (6173), unsexed, 7 September 1910. Whitlock (1911) reported on this trip.
