Lawson Whitlock for H.L. White. From the Mathews Collection via the Rothschild Collection. COMMENTS : In the original description, Mathews said that the type was collected at Port Hedland on 15 October 1914 . The above holotype is the only Mathews specimen collected on that date. In addition to H.L. White’s label, it bears Mathews and Rothschild type labels. There are two female paratypes : AMNH 606641 and 606642, both collected at Port Hedland on 7 October 1914 by Whitlock for H.L. White. These specimens were not cataloged by Mathews. Mayr (1986b: 454) recognized whitlocki ; Schodde and Mason (1999: 187) considered it a synonym of christophori .
