Gerygone culicivora exsul Mathews, 1912a: 309 (Victoria (Rutherglen)).

Now Gerygone fusca exsul Mathews, 1912 View in CoL . See Meise, 1931: 361, Ford, 1981a, Mayr, 1986b: 453, and Schodde and Mason, 1999: 185–186.

HOLOTYPE: AMNH 606921 About AMNH , adult male, collected at Rutherglen , 36.03S, 146.28E ( USBGN, 1957b), Victoria, Australia, on 18 October 1899, by A.G. Campbell (no. 671). From the Mathews Collection (no. 1726) via the Rothschild Collection. GoogleMaps

COMMENTS: Mathews cited his catalog number of the holotype in the original description. This was apparently his only specimen from Victoria. In addition to Campbell’s field label, Mathews and Rothschild type labels, it also bears a yellow ‘‘Figured’’ label, indicating that it was illustrated in Mathews (1920a: pl. 386, opp. p. 170, text pp. 172, 174), where it is confirmed as the type of exsul.

Mayr (1986b: 453) considered G. f. exsul a synonym of nominate G. fusca , but Ford (1981a) and Schodde and Mason (1999: 185– 186) recognized it.
