Myiagra latirostris tormenti Mathews

Myiagra latirostris tormenti Mathews, 1912e: 91 (Point Torment, North-west Australia).

Now Myiagra ruficollis mimikae Ogilvie-Grant, 1911 . See Watson et al., 1986c: 523, and Schodde and Mason, 1999: 512–513.

HOLOTYPE: AMNH 653338 , adult male, collected at Point Torment , 17.01S, 123.35E ( Johnstone and Storr, 2004: 512), King Sound, Western Australia, Australia, on 21 March 1911, by J.P. Rogers (no. 1436). From the Mathews Collection (no. 8701) via the Rothschild Collection.

COMMENTS: Mathews cited his catalog number of the holotype in the original description. In addition to Rogers field label, it bears Mathews and Rothschild type labels and a yellow ‘‘Figured’’ label, indicating that it illustrated in Mathews (1921b: pl. 406, lower fig., opp. p. 51, text p. 55). In his description of the adult male on p. 55, Mathews gave the correct data but neglected to mention that it was the holotype. There are 17 paratypes, all from Point Torment and all cataloged by Mathews before the publication date of tormenti: AMNH 653339– 653355 (Mathews catalog nos. 8208–8214, 8440–8442, 8609, 8610, and 8700–8705).
