Corvus cecilae marngli Mathews, 1912b: 52 (Marngle Creek, West Kimberley, West Australia).

Now Corvus bennetti North, 1901 View in CoL . See Mathews, 1926: 403–406; Hartert, 1929a: 54; Mathews, 1930: 895; Blake and Vaurie, 1962: 276; Rowley, 1970; Schodde and Mason, 1999: 608; and dos Anjos, 2009: 633.

HOLOTYPE: AMNH 674578 View Materials , adult male, collected at Manguel (= Marngle) Creek, 17.49S, 123.39E ( Johnstone and Storr, 2004: 510), West Kimberley, Western Australia, Australia, on 1 June 1911, by J.P. Rogers (no. 1712). From the Mathews Collection (no. 9396) via the Rothschild Collection. GoogleMaps

COMMENTS: Mathews gave his catalog number of the holotype in the original description, noting that the wing measured 312 mm and that the bill was shorter than that of C. cecilae . Mathews (1926: 403–406) does not give further measurements for marngli. My measurements: wing 313, bill 51, tarsus 57. These fall within the measurements given by Rowley (1970: 59, 63) for C. bennetti .
