HOLOTYPE
:
AMNH 692459
, adult male, collected at
Inkerman
,
19.45S
,
147.29E
(
USBGN
, 1957),
Queensland
,
Australia
, on
19 April 1907
, by Wilfred Stalker. From the
Mathews Collection
(no. 3106) via the Rothschild Collection.
COMMENTS: Mathews cited his catalog number of the
holotype
in the original description and gave the range as ‘‘
Queensland
.’’ The
holotype
bears, in addition to Stalker’s original label and Mathews and Rothschild type labels, a ‘‘Figured’’ label, indicating that it was illustrated in
Mathews (1924
: pl. 523, top fig., opp. p. 388, text p. 392), where it is confirmed as the type of
queenslandicus
. The number ‘‘762’’ on the reverse of Stalker’s label refers to the number of this species in
Mathews (1908)
.
Ingram (1908: 476)
reported on Stalker’s collection and listed this single specimen. No other
Queensland
specimens in AMNH from the Mathews Collection were collected before the
31 January 1912
publication date of
queenslandicus
.
