Aegintha temporalis loftyi
Mathews
Aegintha temporalis loftyi
Mathews, 1912a: 431
(Mt. Lofty,
South Australia
).
Now
Neochmia temporalis temporalis
(Latham, 1801)
. See

HOLOTYPE
:
AMNH 721795
, adult female, collected in the
Mount Lofty Range
,
35.00S
,
138.50E
(
USBGN
, 1957), east of
Adelaide
,
South Australia
,
Australia
, on
22 September 1911
, by
S.A. White
(no. 185).
From
the
Mathews Collection
(no. 9825) via the
Rothschild Collection.
COMMENTS: In the original description, Mathews gave his catalog number of the
holotype
and the range of the form as
South Australia
. The
holotype
bears, in addition to the original label, Mathews and Rothschild type labels. He had two additional specimens collected by White on the same day,
paratypes
:
AMNH 721793
(Mathews no. 9824),
AMNH 721794
(9823), males, Mount Lofty Range,
22 September 1911
. A third specimen was in Mathews’ hand before the publication of his ‘‘Reference-list’’ in
January 1912
, and I have considered it also to be a
paratype
:
AMNH 721796
(9944), female, Mount Lofty Range, on
19 October 1911
, by White. It was cataloged by Mathews on
12 December 1911
as ‘‘
Aegintha lofti
.
’’
