Now considered an intergrade between A. p. dawsonensis and A. p. pusilla . See Schodde and Mason, 1999: 198–200 . LECTOTYPE : AMNH 600486 , unsexed, collected in the Bunya Mountains , 26.52S , 151.35E ( Storr, 1984: 180 ), Queensland , Australia , on 3 October 1919 , by J.B. Cleland (no. 493). From the Mathews Collection via the Rothschild Collection. COMMENTS : In the original description, Mathews said only that the type was collected by Dr. Cleland in the Bunya Mountains, Queensland , on 3 October 1919 . Two AMNH specimens bear those data and are marked ‘‘Type’’ of bunya in what appears to be Mathews’ hand. The unsexed specimen bears a yellow ‘‘Figured’’ label, indicating that it was illustrated in Mathews (1922a : pl. 448, middle left fig., opp. p. 412, text p. 414), where on p. 414 Mathews stated that the figured bird, listed as an ‘‘Adult’’, was the type of bunya , thus designating it the lectotype . An adult male, AMNH 600485 , collected at the same time by Cleland (no. 492) bears an AMNH type label written by Mayr ; it is, however, a paralectotype . Because it has been included in the type collection, it remains there with a label added to explain its status. A note has also been added to the general collection to indicate its whereabouts. Mayr (1986b: 434) recognized bunya and considered dawsonensis a synonym. Schodde and Mason (1999: 198–200) recognized dawsonensis and considered specimens from the Bunya Mountains area to be intergrades. There is no material of this species from Queensland in AMNH, other than specimens from the Bunya Mountains.
