, adult male, collected at
Inkerman
,

,

(
USBGN

Queensland
,
Australia
, on
14 March 1907
, by
Wilfred Stalker
(no. 305).
From
the
Mathews Collection
(no. 2584) via the Rothschild Collection.
COMMENTS:
In
the original description,
Mathews
gave his catalog number of the
holotype
and the range of
inkermani
as ‘‘
Queensland
.’’
The
following specimens are considered
paratypes
:
Inkerman
,
AMNH 673404
(Mathews no. 2586), immature male,
7 March 1907
,
AMNH 673406
(2585), female,
14 March 1907
, both collected by
Stalker
;
Mackay
,
AMNH 673411
(6468), sex?, undated, purchased from Gerrard, and cataloged
4 February 1911
. The number ‘‘655’’ that occurs on Stalker’s labels refers to the number of this species in
Mathews (1908)
. Other specimens in
AMNH
from ‘‘
Queensland’
’ were never in the
Mathews Collection
or were collected after the
31 January 1912
publication date of
inkermani
.
Stalker’s collection at the Inkerman Station was made for Sir William Ingram and reported on by his son, Collingwood
Ingram (1908b: 458–481)
, where the three specimens were listed as
Cracticus picatus
(p. 472). The collection was purchased by Mathews.
