Now Corcorax melanorhamphos whiteae Mathews, 1912 . See Hartert, 1929: 54 ; Mayr, 1962a: 160 ; Schodde and Mason, 1999: 616–617 ; Dickinson, 2003: 515 ; and Rowley and Russell, 2009a: 284 . HOLOTYPE : AMNH 673745 , adult female, collected on the west coast near Lake Greenly , 34.20S , 135.25E ( USBGN , 1957), Eyre Peninsula , South Australia , Australia , on 29 August 1911 , by S.A. White (no. 58). From the Mathews Collection (no. 9563) via the Rothschild Collection. COMMENTS: In the original description, Mathews cited his catalog number of the holotype and gave the range of whiteae as South Australia . This female holotype was described, but not illustrated, in Mathews (1927: 415) . AMNH 673746 (Mathews no. 12218), male, Streaky Bay, 29 August 1911 , was not cataloged until May 1912 , after the 31 January 1912 publication of whiteae , and is therefore not accepted as a paratype . Other specimens of this form in AMNH from South Australia were collected after the description was published or were not part of the Mathews Collection. See Schodde and Mason (1999: 616–617) for recognition of whiteae .
