Ptilotis leucotis mallee Mathews

Ptilotis leucotis mallee Mathews, 1913b: 193 (Mallee, Victoria).

Now Lichenostomus leucotis novaenorciae (Milligan, 1904) View in CoL . See Salomonsen, 1967: 384, Schodde

and Mason, 1999: 240–241, Christidis and Boles, 2008: 185–191, and Higgins et al., 2008: 602–603.

HOLOTYPE: AMNH 695098 View Materials , adult male, collected at Ned’s Well , 35.01S, 139.52E ( USBGN, 1957), South Australia, Australia, on 10 November 1911, by S.A. White (no. 368). From the Mathews Collection (no. 10140) via the Rothschild Collection. GoogleMaps

COMMENTS: Mathews cited his catalog number of the holotype in the original description and gave the range as ‘‘Mallee.’’ The holotype bears, in addition to White’s original label, Mathews and Rothschild type labels. The following specimens, cataloged by Mathews before the publication date of mallee on 20 March 1913, are paratypes: AMNH 695093 View Materials ( Mathews no. 10138), male, collected 20 miles northeast of Bow Hill on 10 November 1911 ; AMNH 695094 View Materials (10137), unsexed, 20 miles northeast of Bow Hill , 10 November 1911 ; AMNH 695095 View Materials (10139), male, 30 miles northeast of Bow Hill , 10 November 1911, all by S.A. White ; AMNH 695096 View Materials (15270), female, Day Trap, 9 September 1912, by T. Tregellas ; AMNH 695100 View Materials (11675), unsexed, 6 miles from Schultz’s ( Schuteges , as on label) Landing , Mallee , on 6 January 1912, received from E. Ashby. Two additional specimens may also be paratypes, but I did not find them in Mathews’ catalog: AMNH 695091 View Materials , female, Kow Plains, 2 August 1911, by F.E. Wilson ; AMNH 695099 View Materials , male, Mallee , 8 September 1911, received from C.E. Cole, but Wilson’s name is also on the label. There is also a paratype in SAMA (B. Blaylock, personal commun.)

S.A. White (1913a) wrote about this trip into the mallee.
