Ethelornis levigaster intermissus Mathews

Ethelornis levigaster intermissus Mathews, 1920a: 160 (Buchanan’s Islet, Melville Island, Northern Territory).

Now Gerygone levigaster levigaster Gould, 1843 View in CoL . See Meise, 1931: 364, Mayr, 1986b: 454, and Schodde and Mason, 1999: 183–184.

LECTOTYPE: AMNH 606954 About AMNH , adult male, collected on Buchanan Islet , 11.49S, 130.39E ( Storr, 1977: 106), Shoal Bay, Melville Island, Northern Territory, Australia, on 2 May 1912, by J.P. Rogers (no. 3390). From the Mathews Collection (no. 13306) via the Rothschild Collection. GoogleMaps

COMMENTS: Mathews did not designate a type in the original description, only mentioning that he had a ‘‘good series’’. The above specimen bears the Rothschild type label and was without doubt the specimen considered the type by Meise (1931: 364). It was so cataloged when the Rothschild Collection came to AMNH. To avoid any confusion in interpreting the older literature, I hereby designate AMNH 606954 About AMNH the lectotype of E. levigaster intermissus . Paralectotypes, all collected on Buchanan Islet in 1912, are: AMNH 606955 About AMNH (Mathews no. 13305, Rogers no. 3375), male, 1 May ; AMNH 606956 About AMNH (13308, 3393), female, 2 May ; AMNH 606957 About AMNH (13307, 3995), sex?, 2 May ; and AMNH 606958 About AMNH (13309, 3288), female, 13 April .
