Carterornis leucotis gracemeri Mathews

Carterornis leucotis gracemeri Mathews, 1915a: 130 (Gracemere, Queensland).

Now Monarcha leucotis Gould, 1850 View in CoL . See Watson et al., 1986c: 507, Schodde and Mason, 1999: 493–494, and Filardi and Smith, 2005.

HOLOTYPE: AMNH 655099 About AMNH , male, collect- ed at Gracemere , 23.27S, 150.27E ( Storr, 1984: 183), Queensland, Australia, on 20 April 1882. From the Mathews Collection (no. 14568) via the Rothschild Collection. GoogleMaps

COMMENTS: In his original description, Mathews said only that the type was from Gracemere. The above specimen is the only Gracemere specimen that came to AMNH with the Rothschild Collection. It bears both a Mathews and a Rothschild type label and Mathews’ catalog number 14568, although that number was not listed in the description. The specimen was cataloged as being from Collett and was probably collected by Carl Lumholtz (see LeCroy, 2005: 56). A second specimen, AMNH 655100 (cataloged by Mathews as no. 14569) from Taraiyanbar, collected on 17 February 1882, was probably also collected by Lumholtz, as the handwriting on the original label of this specimen and the holotype is similar. It should probably be considered a paratype.

Schodde and Mason (1999: 494) noted that Gould named leucotis in 1850 in Jardine’s Contributions to Ornithology, and not in 1851 in the Proceedings of the Zoological Society of London.
