Acanthiza chrysorrhoa multi Mathews

Acanthiza chrysorrhoa multi Mathews, 1912a: 351 (West Australia (Wilson’s Inlet)).

Now Acanthiza chrysorrhoa chrysorrhoa (Quoy and Gaimard, 1830) View in CoL . See Mayr, 1986b: 439, and Schodde and Mason, 1999: 212–213.

HOLOTYPE: AMNH 601138 About AMNH , adult female, collected at Wilson Inlet , 35.00S, 117.24E ( Johnstone and Storr, 2004: 515), Western Australia, Australia, on 26 May 1910, by F.L. Whitlock. From the Mathews Collection (no. 5499) via the Rothschild Collection. GoogleMaps

COMMENTS: Mathews cited his catalog number of the holotype in the original description. In addition to Whitlock’s label, the specimen bears Mathews Collection and type labels and a yellow ‘‘Figured’’ label, indicating that it was illustrated in Mathews (1922a: pl. 452, bottom right, opp. p. 464, text p. 466), where it is confirmed as the type of multi. This specimen was part of a collection Mathews received from Whitlock and cataloged on 14 October 1910. The following specimens collected by Whitlock at Wilson Inlet are paratypes: AMNH 601131 About AMNH (Mathews no. 4192), juvenile male, 5 December 1909 ; AMNH 601132 About AMNH (4190), female, 11 December 1909 ; AMNH 601133 About AMNH (4191), unsexed juvenile, 7 January 1910 ; AMNH 601135 About AMNH (4766), female, 31 March 1910 ; AMNH 601136 About AMNH (4765), female, 15 April 1910 ; and AMNH 601137 About AMNH (5498), female, 26 May 1910. Two additional specimens are probable paratypes, but I did not find them in Mathew’s catalog: AMNH 601130 About AMNH , male, 22 March 1910 ; and AMNH 601134 About AMNH , female, 22 February 1910 .

Mayr (1986b: 439), who considered the type locality of A. c. chrysorrhoa to be New South Wales, recognized A. c. multi; howev- er, Schodde and Mason (1999: 212–213) found that the type of A. c. chrysorrhoa was the Western Australian form and identified the type locality as King George Sound. A. c. multi from nearby Wilson Inlet becomes a synonym of nominate chrysorrhoa .
