Now Petroica rodinogaster inexpectata Mathews, 1912 . See Schodde and Mason, 1999: 382–383 . HOLOTYPE : AMNH 607595 , adult male, collected in Gippsland , Victoria , Australia , on 16 July 1886 , by Edwin Ashby. From the Mathews Collection (no. 1633) via the Rothschild Collection. COMMENTS : Mathews cited his catalog number of the holotype in the original description ; it bears, in addition to Ashby’s label and Mathews and Rothschild type labels, a yellow ‘‘ Figured’ ’ label, indicating that it was illustrated in Mathews (1920a : pl. 378, upper figs., opp. p. 97, text p. 106), although it is not there said to be the type. The following specimens are paratypes : Frankston , AMNH 607593 ( Mathews no. 4951) ; Lal Lal , AMNH 607596 (1635) ; Melton , AMNH 607602 (5088) ; Olinda Creek , AMNH 607605 (4545) ; and Upper Yarra , AMNH 607607 (1634). Possible paratypes , although I did not find them listed in Mathews’ catalog, are: Frankston , AMNH 607591 , male, 22 August 1908 ; AMNH 607592 , male, 22 April 1908 ; and Olinda , AMNH 607604 , female, 8 July 1911 . Mathews (1913a: 168) specified the type locality of inexpectata as Gippsland, the collecting locality of his holotype . Mayr (1986d: 566) considered inexpectata a synonym of rodinogaster .
