Myzomela erythrocephala derbyi Mathews
Myzomela erythrocephala derbyi Mathews, 1912a: 396 (North-West Australia (Derby)).
Now Myzomela erythrocephala erythrocephala Gould, 1840 View in CoL . See Salomonsen, 1967: 356, Schodde and Mason, 1999: 335–336, Christidis and Boles, 2008: 185–191, and Higgins et al., 2008: 648–649.
HOLOTYPE: AMNH 692732 View Materials , adult male, collected at Point Torment , 17.15S, 123.44E ( USBGN, 1957), King Sound, West Kimberley, northern Western Australia, Australia, on 17 January 1911, by J.P. Rogers (no.1164). From the Mathews Collection (no. 8268) via the Rothschild Collection. GoogleMaps
COMMENTS: Mathews cited his catalog number of the holotype in the original description and gave the range as ‘‘North- West Australia.’’ In addition to Rogers’ label, the holotype bears Mathews and Rothschild type labels. The following specimens were cataloged by Mathews prior to the publication of the name and are paratypes: Point Torment, males, AMNH 692730 View Materials (Mathews’ no. 8724), AMNH 692731 View Materials (8482), AMNH 692733 View Materials (8481), AMNH 692734 View Materials (8725), AMNH 692735 View Materials (8267), AMNH 692736 View Materials (8270) ; females, AMNH 692737 View Materials (8483), AMNH 692738 View Materials (8484), AMNH 692739 View Materials (8485), all collected by Rogers ; Napier Broome Bay , males, AMNH 692740 View Materials (5772), AMNH 692741 View Materials (5771), AMNH 692742 View Materials (6237), AMNH 692743 View Materials (6238), AMNH 692744 View Materials (5774) ; female, AMNH 692745 View Materials (5773), all collected by G.F. Hill. All of Rogers’ specimens are labeled Point Torment, King Sound, although Mathews gave ‘‘Derby’’ as the type locality. While the two localities are closely adjacent, ‘‘Derby’’ does not appear on any of Rogers’ labels. Mathews (1924: 312), in his later description of the adult male of M. erythrocephala , said that the described (but not figured) specimen was ‘‘Collected at Point Torment, North-west Australia, on the 17th of January, 1911, and is M. e. derbyi.’’ While he did not say that it was the type, that was his only specimen collected on that date, and it shows that he equated Point Torment with Derby .
