See  Mathews, 1926: 322–333;  Hartert, 1929a: 56–57;  Mayr and Jennings, 1952: 8–10;  Mayr, 1962c: 179;  Gilliard, 1969: 361–363;  Schodde and Mason, 1999: 634–635; and  Frith and Frith, 2004: 403–405;  2009a: 402–403.    HOLOTYPE:  AMNH 679122, male, collected in South Australia?, undated. From the Mathews Collection (no. 3656) via the Rothschild Collection.  COMMENTS: Mathews gave his catalog number of the holotypein the original description and gave the range as ‘‘ South Australia.’’ He apparently had a single specimen as he described the bill as smaller and lighter, unique in this specimen because the rhamphotheca on the upper bill is missing ( Hartert, 1929a: 56). In addition to Mathews and Rothschild type labels, the holotypealso bears a Mathews Collection label and a Mathews ‘‘Figured’’ label, indicating that it served as the model for Mathews (1926, pl. 584, lower fig., opp. p. 322; text p. 323) where it is confirmed as the type of clelandiae. Hartert (1929a: 57)noted that the type was dirty and a poor choice for illustration. The holotypehas no original label. ‘‘Dr. Clelland’’ was noted as the collector on the Mathews label. This was undoubtedly J. Burton Cleland who published widely on the stomach contents of Australian birds (see Whittell, 1954: 147–152) and from whom Mathews often received specimens, although this holotypewas not attributed to Cleland in Mathews’ catalog. I was also unable to find this specimen mentioned in Cleland’s published papers. According to the map in Schodde and Mason (1999: 634),  C. maculatabarely intrudes into eastern South Australiaon the Murray River. Some recent authors include  Chlamyderain  Ptilonorhynchusbased on studies of cytochrome bin bowerbirds by Kusmierski et al. (1993)and Kusmierski et al. (1997). Pending the outcome of further molecular studies on bowerbirds, the more conventional generic limits are followed here. 3059913786 AMNH From 86 86 AMNH 679122 1 South Australia holotype
