Now Cracticus nigrogularis nigrogularis (Gould, 1837) . See Amadon, 1951: 8–9; 1962b: 167–168; Condon, 1969: 105 ; Schodde and Mason, 1999: 543–544 ; Dickinson, 2003: 463 ; and Russell and Rowley, 2009: 338–339 . HOLOTYPE : AMNH 673348 , adult male, collected in South Australia , undated. From the Mathews Collection (no. 2583) via the Rothschild Collection. COMMENTS: In the original description, Mathews cited his catalog number of the holotype and gave the range of mellori as ‘‘ Victoria, South Australia .’’ The Mathews label on the holotype is annotated as having been purchased from the dealer Gerrard. Mathews apparently had no Victorian spec- imen at this time ; AMNH 673347 was collected by T.H. Tregellas at Wandella on 6 March 1912 , after the publication of mellori on 31 January 1912 . At the same time that Mathews cataloged the holotype , he entered two additional specimens from South Australia as nos. 2581 and 2582. There are two additional South Australian specimens at AMNH that were in the Mathews Collection : AMNH 673349 , female, without locality, but with ‘‘ S.A. ’’ pencilled in, from the collection of Edwin Ashby ; and AMNH 673350 , sex?, ‘‘ South Australia ,’’ undated. They are possible paratypes , but the data in the catalog do not exactly correspond to the data on the labels .
