Gerygone chloronota darwini Mathews View in CoL

Gerygone chloronota darwini Mathews, 1912c: 40 View in CoL (Parry’s Creek, North-west Australia).

Now Gerygone chloronota darwini Mathews, 1912 View in CoL . See Meise, 1931: 344, Mayr, 1986b: 445, and Schodde and Mason, 1999: 190–191.

HOLOTYPE: AMNH 606733 About AMNH , adult male, collected at Parry Creek , 15.36S, 128.17E ( Johnstone and Storr, 2004: 512), 5 mi west of Trig Station HJ 9, East Kimberley, northern Western Australia, Australia, on 7 September 1908, by J.P. Rogers (no. 68). From the Mathews Collection (no. 1740) via the Rothschild Collection. GoogleMaps

COMMENTS: Mathews cited his catalog number of the holotype in the original description. In addition to a Rogers field label, and Mathews and Rothschild type labels, the specimen bears a yellow ‘‘Figured’’ label, indicating that it was illustrated in Mathews (1920a: pl. 382, central fig., opp. p. 140, text p. 155–157), where, even though the data match, it is not there said to be the type. A paratype, AMNH 606734 (Mathews no. 1739), male, was collected at the same locality on 5 November 1908 by Rogers (no. 292).

Mayr (1986b: 445) synonymized G. c. darwini with the nominate race. Schodde and Mason (1999: 190–191) provisionally recognized darwini, noting that the Parry Creek specimens come from an area where intergradation with chloronotus may take place. As they noted, however, the type [and paratype] are ‘‘pallid with the more yellowish cast of the Kimberley form’’ and more study is needed.
