Pardalotus striatus substriatus Mathews

Pardalotus striatus substriatus Mathews, 1912a: 388 (Victoria) .

Now Pardalotus striatus substriatus Mathews, 1912 . See Schodde and Mason, 1999: 128–131, and Woinarski, 2008: 401.

HOLOTYPE: AMNH 698952 , adult male, collected at Ultima , 35.30S, 143.20E (Times Atlas), Victoria, Australia, on 23 June 1909, by F.E. Howe (no. 723). From the Mathews Collection (no. 4526) via the Rothschild Collection.

COMMENTS: Mathews cited his catalog number of the holotype in the original description and in his catalog noted that the specimen came from Howe. In addition to Howe’s original label, the holotype bears Mathews and Rothschild type labels. Because Mathews gave the range of substriatus as Victoria, specimens of P. striatus from that state that were in his possession in 1912 are considered paratypes; these were cataloged variously as assimilis or ornatus . Specimens collected by C.F. Cole at an early date were not found in Mathews’ catalog; Whittell (1954: 158) noted that Cole sent his collection to Mathews in 1914, after this subspecies was named. Paratypes are: Frankston, AMNH 698916 (Mathews no. 9561), male, 21 April 1908, AMNH 698918 (4915), female, 12 April 1909, AMNH 698919 (4916), female, 12 April 1909, AMNH 698920 (probably shares no. 9561), female, 21 April 1908, AMNH 698921 (5097), female, 12 March 1909, AMNH 698922 (4948), female, 24 July 1909, AMNH 698923 (4947), female, 24 July 1909, AMNH 698924 (4943), immature female, 12 December 1908; Olinda, AMNH 698930 (4914), male, 1 February 1909; Bayswater, AMNH 698932 (4942), female, 22 October 1907, AMNH 698933 (4943), female, 22 October 1907, AMNH 698934 (4944), male, 27 March 1909, AMNH 698935 (4945), male, 27 March 1909; Sassafras, AMNH 698936 (5957), female, 3 September 1910; Rutherglen, AMNH 698953 (8562), female, 18 August 1900; Croydon, Dandenong Range, AMNH 698973 (4939), male, 19 December 1908; Mornington Junction, AMNH 698974 (4946), male, 9 April 1909. AMNH 698941, male, collected at Melton on 6 June 1910 is a probable paratype, but I did not find it in Mathews’ catalog.
