Philemon orientalis breda Mathews

Philemon orientalis breda Mathews, 1912b: 51 (Melville Island, Northern Territory).

Now Philemon citreogularis sordidus (Gould, 1848) View in CoL . See Salomonsen, 1967: 405, Schodde and Mason, 1999: 287–288, Christidis and Boles, 2008: 185–191, and Higgins et al., 2008: 684–685.

HOLOTYPE: AMNH 696753 About AMNH , adult male, collected at Coopers Camp, Apsley Strait,

Melville Island, Northern Territory, Australia, on 6 December 1911, by J.P. Rogers (no. 2584). From the Mathews Collection (no. 11552) via the Rothschild Collection.

COMMENTS: Mathews cited his catalog number of the holotype in the original description and gave the range of the form as ‘‘Melville Island.’’ The holotype bears, in addition to Rogers’ label and Mathews and Rothschild type labels, a ‘‘Figured’’ label, indicating that it was illustrated in Mathews (1925a: pl. 556, upper fig., opp. p. 109, text p. 117) where it is confirmed as the type of breda.

Mathews (1912b: 26) noted that he had received two shipments of specimens collected by Rogers on Melville Island ; these included specimens collected in 1911 at Coopers Camp. Paratypes are: AMNH 696752 About AMNH (Mathews no. 10752), male, 6 October ; AMNH 696754 About AMNH (11550), male, 18 November ; AMNH 696755 About AMNH (10751), male, 20 October ; AMNH 696756 About AMNH (10753), female, 1 October ; AMNH 696758 About AMNH (10750), female, 6 October ; AMNH 696760 About AMNH (11551), sex?, 6 December .

Salomonsen (1967: 405) recognized breda; whereas, Schodde and Mason (1999: 287– 288) and Higgins et al. (2008: 684) did not.

According to Hart and Pilling (1964: 101), Coopers Camp was across Apsley Strait from the Bathurst Island Mission Station, 11.45S, 130.41E (Times Atlas).
