COMMENTS
: Of the
four specimens
Mathews had from the Gregory
River
, AMNH 608070 is the only one collected on the
20 July 1910
, the date of collection of the
type
given in the original description. Mathews’ catalog number was not given in the original description but is written on the Mathews Collection label; the ‘‘p. 175’’ also written on this label refers to
Mathews (1920a: 175)
. It also bears an original field label, probably by W. McLennan, as the specimen was obtained from W.D.K. Macgillivray, for whom McLennan collected (see
Mathews, 1927b: 107
). Two additional labels are a green Mathews
type
label and a yellow ‘‘Figured’’ label, indicating that this specimen was illustrated in
Mathews (1920a
: pl. 389, opp. p. 191, text pp. 191–192), where its
type
status is not mentioned.
The
three paratypes
are:
AMNH 608071
, male,
Gregory
River
,
21 July 1910
;
and
AMNH 608072
and 608073, females,
Fiery Downs
,
9 and 19 July 1910
, respectively.
Macgillivray (1914)
reported on
McLennan’s
1910–1911 trip to northern
Queensland
and included his itinerary
