Rhipidura albiscapa alisteri Mathews View in CoL
Rhipidura albiscapa alisteri Mathews, 1911c: 87 View in CoL (New South Wales).
Now Rhipidura albiscapa alisteri Mathews, 1911 View in CoL . See Schodde and Mason, 1999: 481–483.
HOLOTYPE: AMNH 650264 About AMNH , adult female, collected at Homebush 33.52S, 151.05E GoogleMaps
( USBGN, 1957b), near Sydney, New South Wales, Australia, in May 1887, by T. Thorpe. From the Mathews Collection (no. 7618) via the Rothschild Collection.
COMMENTS: Mathews cited his catalog number of the holotype in the original description. In addition to Thorpe’s label, it bears Mathews and Rothschild type labels and a yellow ‘‘Figured’’ label, indicating that it was illustrated in Mathews (1921b: either pl. 400, opp. p. 3, or pl. 401, opp. p. 8, text p. 5). In the text, Mathews said that the figured bird was the type of alisteri , but the birds in plates 400 and 401 are not individually labeled. A note on the reverse of Thorpe’s label ‘‘bottom fig.’’ indicates that it is the bottom individual in one of them. Mathews received the holotype and two additional New South Wales specimens from T. Thorpe: paratypes AMNH 650265 About AMNH (Mathews no. 7619), female, Homebush, May 1887 ; and AMNH 650266 About AMNH (7617), female, Goulburn, December 1898. A third paratype is AMNH 650262 About AMNH (1780), male, Roseville, Sydney, 24 May 1905 .
Mathews (1913a: 184) specified the type locality of alisteri as the collecting locality of his holotype. The subspecies alisteri was described by Mathews in the species R. albiscapa , contra Watson and Mayr (1986: 545).
