Eremiornis carteri assimilis Montague
Eremiornis carteri assimilis Montague, 1913: 181 (Hermite Island, Monte Bello Group).
Now Eremiornis carteri North, 1900 . See Watson et al., 1986a: 46, and Schodde and Mason, 1999: 705.
Syntype: AMNH 597987, adult male, collected on Hermite Island, 20.28S, 115.32E ( Johnstone and Storr, 2004: 507), Montebello Islands, Western Australia, Australia, on 6 June 1912, by Paul D. Montague (no. 39a). From the Mathews Collection (no. 15792) via the Rothschild Collection.
COMMENTS: In the original description, Montague said only that the type was from Hermite Island, collected in June 1912; wing measurements of 53–58 mm were given. Later, Montague (1914: 634) reported on his entire collection from the Montebello Islands and listed a male, wing 60 mm, and a female, wing 51 mm, of this species. My measurement of the wing of the male is 60 mm; it bears Mathews and Rothschild type labels. There seems no doubt that this specimen was part of Montague’s type series (see LeCroy, 2003: 45–46); there are no syntypes in WAM (Ron Johnstone, personal commun.), and the fate of the female is unknown.
