Gerygone culicivora berneyi Mathews

Gerygone culicivora berneyi Mathews, 1912f: 119 (Queensland).

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 606915 About AMNH , adult male, collected at Tambo , 24.52S, 146.13E (Times Atlas), Queensland, Australia, on 10 August 1881. From the Mathews Collection (no. 14514) via the Rothschild Collection. GoogleMaps

COMMENTS: Mathews cited his catalog number of the holotype in the original description. This specimen was part of a collection that Mathews received from Robert Collett, Director of ZMO, including specimens collected by Knut Dahl and Carl Lumholtz. This badly worn Queensland specimen was most probably collected by Lumholtz, who in August 1881 collected along an 800-mi route into western Queensland ( Whittell, 1954: 457).

Mathews (1913a: 174) specified the type locality of berneyi as Tambo, the collecting locality of his holotype. Mayr (1986b: 453) considered this form a synonym of G. f. fusca , but Ford (1981a) and Schodde and Mason (1999: 186) placed Tambo within the range of G. f. exsul.
