Gliciphila fasciata inkermani Mathews, 1912a: 400 (Queensland (Inkerman)).

Now Ramsayornis fasciatus (Gould, 1843) View in CoL . See Salomonsen, 1967: 432, Schodde and Mason, 1999: 320, Christidis and Boles, 2008: 185–191, and Higgins et al., 2008: 627–628.

HOLOTYPE: AMNH 692348 About AMNH , adult male, collected at Inkerman, 19.45S, 147.29E ( USBGN, 1957), Queensland, Australia, on GoogleMaps

2 April 1907, by Wilfred Stalker (no. 322). From the Mathews Collection (no. 3092) via the Rothschild Collection.

COMMENTS: Mathews cited his catalog number of the holotype in the original description and gave the range as ‘‘ Queensland.’’ The holotype bears Stalker’s original label and Mathews and Rothschild type labels ; it is the only Queensland specimen that Mathews had when this form was described; The Mathews specimen that is now AMNH 692347 About AMNH was collected by C. Lumholtz in December 1880, but was part of a large collection of Australian birds that Mathews received from Robert Collett, ZMO, after the publication of inkermani on 31 January 1912 ( Mathews, 1912b: 25). All other AMNH specimens from Queensland were either never in Mathews’ collection or were collected after publication of the name .

Ingram (1908: 476) reported on the collection made by Stalker at Inkerman and listed a single specimen of this species. The number ‘‘758’’ that appears on the reverse of Stalker’s label refers to the number of this species in Mathews (1908).
