Eopsaltria griseogularis wongani Mathews

Eopsaltria griseogularis wongani Mathews, 1920a: 299 (Wongan Hills, West Australia).

Now Eopsaltria griseogularis griseogularis Gould, 1838 . See Mayr, 1986d: 572, and Schodde and Mason, 1999: 365–366.

HOLOTYPE: AMNH 659673 , sex?, collect- ed at Wongan Hills , 30.51S, 116.39E ( Johnstone and Storr, 2004: 515), Western Australia, Australia, on 11 October 1903, by A.W. M[illigan] (no. 6237). From the Mathews Collection via the Rothschild Collection.

COMMENTS: Mathews had a single specimen from Wongan Hills, and this was the only locality mentioned in the original description. The field label has been marked ‘‘ Type of wongani’’ by Mathews. The number ‘‘457’’ that appears on the field label refers to this species in Mathews (1908a). This type had not previously been included in the AMNH type collection.

The names on the two subspecies of E. griseogularis shown on the map in Schodde and Mason (1999: 365) are reversed in the legend, but the discussion on p. 366 is correct.
