Poecilodryas superciliosa yorki Mathews

Poecilodryas superciliosa yorki Mathews, 1916b: 83 (Cape York, Queensland).

Now Poecilodryas superciliosa (Gould, 1847) View in CoL . See Mayr, 1986d: 578, and Schodde and Mason, 1999: 353.

HOLOTYPE: AMNH 608069 About AMNH , immature female, collected on the Jardine River , 11.10S, 142.25E ( Storr, 1984: 183), Cape York, Queensland, Australia, on 18 April 1911, by William R. McLennan for W.D.K. Macgillivray. From the Mathews Collection (no. 17259) via the Rothschild Collection. GoogleMaps

COMMENTS: In the original description, Mathews gave a wing measurement of 68 mm but otherwise said only that the type was from ‘‘ Cape York’’. AMNH 608069 is the only Cape York specimen of this species at AMNH from the Mathews Collection and its wing measures 68 mm. In addition to McLennan’s field label, the specimen bears a Mathews type label and a Mathews Collection label, with his catalog number (not cited in the description) and the number ‘‘470’’, which refers to the number of this species in Mathews (1908a). Macgillivray (1914: 166) said of this bird: ‘‘Only one bird seen and secured for identification. It proved to be an immature female, and was obtained at the Jardine River.’’
