COMMENTS: Hartert did not designate a type in the original description but gave measurements for at least two specimens. Later, Hartert (1919a: 142) listed the male specimen bearing Meek’s no. 1821 as the type, thereby designating it the lectotype . There is one paralectotype , AMNH 721658 , female, Cape York , 18 June 1898 , A.S. Meek (no. 1824). Parker (1966: 121–122) investigated Meek’s collecting locality and found it to be the Chester River , 13.42S , 143.33E .
