Now Cracticus mentalis kempi Mathews, 1912 . See Mathews, 1923b: 398–400 ; Amadon, 1951: 4; 1962b: 166; Schodde and Mason, 1999: 542 ; Dickinson, 2003: 463 ; and Russell and Rowley, 2009: 338 . HOLOTYPE : AMNH 673566 , adult male, collected at Skull Creek , 20 miles south of Cape York (as on label), Queensland , Australia , in June 1912 , by Robin Kemp (no. 1048). From the Mathews Collection (no. 13154) via the Rothschild Collection. COMMENTS: In the original description, Mathews gave his catalog number of the holotype and noted that he ‘‘had now received a series of birds from [ Cape York ].’’ Mathews (1923b: 400) added that Robin Kemp collected the series for him. C. m. kempi was published on 18 September 1912 , and only those specimens collected before that date can be included in the type series. It appears that Mathews had a series of two! All specimens in AMNH that Kemp collected on Cape York , other than the holotype and paratype , were collected after the publication of the name. The paratype is: AMNH 673564 (Mathews no. 13153), adult male, collected at Skull Creek in June 1912 by Kemp (no. 1047).
