Hylacola pyrrhopygia belcheri Mathews
Hylacola pyrrhopygia belcheri Mathews, 1913b: 191 (Anglesea, near Geelong, Victoria).
Now Calamanthus pyrrhopygius pyrrhopygius ( Vigors and Horsfield, 1827) View in CoL . See Mayr, 1986b: 430, and Schodde and Mason, 1999: 145–147.
HOLOTYPE: AMNH 585495 About AMNH , unsexed [immature], collected at a landslip at Anglesea , 38.25S, 144.10E ( USBGN, 1957b), Victoria, Australia, on 16 October 1912, by C.F. Belcher. From the Mathews Collection (no. 15745) via the Rothschild Collection. GoogleMaps
COMMENTS: Mathews cited his catalog number of the holotype in the original description. The specimen bears a Mathews Collection label, on which Mathews has written ‘‘Type’’ and his catalog number, and a Rothschild type label, on the reverse of which is written in Hartert’s hand ‘‘ 5 pyrrhopygia juv. Local. wrong!!’’ Mathews obtained a second immature from Belcher, collected at the same place on the same day, paratype AMNH 585493 (Mathews no. 15744); Hartert has also written on the back of the Rothschild label of this specimen that the locality is wrong. Hartert (1931: 50) explained that these specimens from Victoria agreed with New South Wales specimens of nominate pyrrhopygius , with Victoria populations being thought at the time to belong exclusively to H. p. cauta (now considered a separate species with a range abutting that of C. p. pyrrhopygius in Victoria).
Mayr (1986b: 430) retained pyrrhopygia as a monotypic species within Hylacola ; it is also placed in the genus Hylacola by del Hoyo et al. (2007: 588–589) along with two new subspecies named by Schodde and Mason (1999: 145).
