Malurus cyaneus fletcherae Mathews

Malurus cyaneus fletcherae Mathews, 1912e: 93 (North Tasmania (Ringarooma)).

Now Malurus cyaneus cyaneus (Ellis, 1782) View in CoL . See Schodde, 1982: 40, 47, and Schodde and Mason, 1999: 90, 92.

HOLOTYPE: AMNH 601711 About AMNH , adult male, collected at Ringarooma , 41.14S, 147.44E ( USBGN, 1957b), Tasmania, Australia, on 21 February 1907, by Edwin Ashby (no. 118). From the Mathews Collection (no. 2262) via the Rothschild Collection. GoogleMaps

COMMENTS: Mathews cited his catalog number of the holotype in the original description. I found four paratypes in AMNH: AMNH 601718 About AMNH and 601719, males collected at Devonport on 8 February 1909 by T. Carter (a single entry, no. 2264, in Mathews’ catalog) ; AMNH 601720 About AMNH (2265), immature male, Devonport , 9 February 1909, by T. Carter ; and AMNH 601723 About AMNH (2263), female, New Norfolk, March 1886, by E. Ashby .

Schodde (1982: 40) provided evidence that Ellis, 1782, should be considered the author of Malurus cyaneus , which Ellis called Motacilla cyanea .
