Anthochaera carunculata woodwardi Mathews, 1912a: 419 (West Australia).

Now Anthochaera carunculata woodwardi Mathews, 1912 . See Salomonsen, 1967: 447, Schodde and Mason, 1999: 301–302, Christidis and Boles, 2008: 185–19, and Higgins et al., 2008: 623–624.

HOLOTYPE: AMNH 696422 , adult male, collected at Broomehill , 33.51S, 117.38E ( Johnstone and Storr, 2004: 504), Western Australia, Australia, on 7 September 1905, by Thomas Carter. From the Mathews Collection (no. 3373) via the Rothschild Collection.

COMMENTS: Mathews cited his catalog number of the holotype in the original description and gave the range of woodwardi as ‘‘ West Australia.’’ The holotype bears Carter’s original label and Mathews and Rothschild type labels.
