COMMENTS
: Mathews had a single specimen from Wongan Hills, and this was the only locality mentioned in the original description. The field label has been marked ‘‘
Type
of wongani’’ by Mathews. The number ‘‘457’’ that appears on the field label refers to this species in
Mathews (1908a)
. This
type
had not previously been included in the AMNH
type
collection.
The names on the two subspecies of
E. griseogularis
shown on the map in
Schodde and Mason (1999: 365)
are reversed in the legend, but the discussion on p. 366 is correct.
