Malurus amabilis barroni Mathews
Malurus amabilis barroni Mathews, 1912a: 361 (Cairns, North Queensland).
Now Malurus amabilis Gould, 1852 View in CoL . See Schodde, 1982: 73, and Schodde and Mason, 1999: 83–84.
HOLOTYPE: AMNH 602295 About AMNH , adult male, collected on the ‘‘ Barron River’ ’, northern Queensland, Australia, on 28 August 1910. From the Mathews Collection (no. 8970) via the Rothschild Collection.
COMMENTS: In the original description, Mathews cited his catalog number of the holotype, and it bears a Mathews type label. Paratypes are: AMNH 602288 (Mathews no. 2331), AMNH 602289 (2333), AMNH 602290 (2334), and AMNH 602291 (2332). A possible paratype is AMNH 602294, collect- ed 12 August 1910, but I did not find it in Mathews’ catalog. Three additional specimens were collected early enough, but they were not cataloged until after the name was published: AMNH 602287 (10329) and 602292 (10330) in February 1912, and AMNH 602293 (16863) in 1913. Other Barron River specimens were collected after the name was published.
According to Mathews’ catalog, this holotype was collected by (F.P.) Dodd, who lived at Kuranda, 16.46S, 145.37E (Times Atlas), and it probably came from near his home.
