AMNH 695776
, adult male, collected at Inkerman,
19.45S
,

(

Queensland
, on 18
March
1907, by Wilfred Stalker (no. 316). From the Mathews Collection (no. 3305) via the Rothschild Collection.
COMMENTS: In the original description, Mathews cited his catalog number of the
holotype
, giving the range of the form as ‘‘
Queensland
.’’ In addition to Stalker’s label, the
holotype
bears Mathews and Rothschild type labels. Apparently, Mathews had the single specimen at that time. This specimen is discussed by
Ingram (1908: 477–478)
