title: Chemical synthesis of membrane-associated peptides: A model study on influenza virus B protein BM2(1-51)
Creators: name: Baumruck, Andreas
Publisher: name: UNSPECIFIED
Year: 2020

description: Membrane-associated proteins play often a key role in the development and treatment of heavy diseases (i.g. multiple sclerosis, cancer). Reliable synthetic methods for highly hydrophobic peptides are therefore essential for an efficient production of membrane-associated peptides/proteins. Especially, chemical peptide synthesis allows a fast incorporation of specific modifications including unnatural amino acids, protecting groups or precise isotopic labelling for functional or structural studies. However, providing enough material by Fmoc-based solid phase peptide synthesis (Fmoc-SPPS) and native chemical ligation (NCL) is often limited to good soluble peptide sequences. The synthesis of “difficult sequences” or highly hydrophobic peptides is usually associated with poor yields or a complete failure of the synthesis. This thesis is focused on the development of reliable synthetic methods for highly hydrophobic peptides including the incorporation of temporary bound, C-terminal solubilizing tags and the addition of solubility improving additives such as fluorinated alcohols or ionic liquids. As a model peptide for these studies, the influenza B proton channel sequence BM2(1-51) was chosen. This protein sequence plays an important role in the multiplication of the influenza B virus and is therefore of great relevance for the development of an anti-flu drug. The C-terminal solubilizing tag strategy is based on a removable solubilizing tag which is attached to the thioester-forming rearrangement group 2-hydroxy-3-mercaptopropanamide (Hmp). By attaching polylysine or PEG tags to Hmp moiety an increased solubility was achieved for purification and NCL. With this approach ligation yields of approximately 90% were obtained and the total chemical synthesis of BM2(1-51) was achieved for the first time. The investigated external conditions, presented in this work, represent the addition of hexafluoroisopropanol (HFIP) or the ionic liquid 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium acetate [C2mim][OAc] as efficient additives for NCL or Cys desulfurization. Thereby HFIP turned out as highly efficient additive for poorly-soluble Hmp-peptides leading to nearly quantitative ligation and desulfurization yields. The investigation of the ionic liquid [C2mim][OAc] as alternative ligation media provided deeper insight into N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) induced modifications of thiol-containing compounds and Cys-containing peptides. Finally, conditions were found in which NHC-related side reactions could be entirely suppressed. Applying these findings a new “ionic liquid-buffer” was developed which was successfully applied for BM2(1-51) synthesis.
Nature of the Mesoscale Boundary Layer Height and Water Vapor Variability Observed 14 June 2002 during the IHOP_2002 Campaign

description: Mesoscale water vapor heterogeneities in the boundary layer are studied within the context of the International H2O Project (IHOP_2002). A significant portion of the water vapor variability in the IHOP_2002 occurs at the mesoscale, with the spatial pattern and the magnitude of the variability changing from day to day. On 14 June 2002, an atypical mesoscale gradient is observed, which is the reverse of the climatological gradient over this area. The factors causing this water vapor variability are investigated using complementary platforms (e.g., aircraft, satellite, and in situ) and models. The impact of surface flux heterogeneities and atmospheric variability are evaluated separately using a 1D boundary layer model, which uses surface fluxes from the High-Resolution Land Data Assimilation System (HRLDAS) and early-morning atmospheric temperature and moisture profiles from a mesoscale model. This methodology, based on the use of robust modeling components, allows the authors to tackle the question of the nature of the observed mesoscale variability. The impact of horizontal advection is inferred from a careful analysis of available observations. By isolating the individual contributions to mesoscale water vapor variability, it is shown that the observed moisture variability cannot be explained by a single process, but rather involves a combination of different factors: the boundary layer height, which is strongly controlled by the surface buoyancy flux, the surface latent heat flux, the early-morning heterogeneity of the atmosphere, horizontal advection, and the radiative impact of clouds.

 Acanthiza pusilla samueli Mathews, 1913e: 76 (Myponga, South Australia).
 Now Acanthiza pusilla pusilla (Shaw, 1790). See Schodde and Mason, 1999: 198–200.
HOLOTYPE: AMNH 600490, adult female, collected at Myponga, 35.24S, 138.27E (USBGN, 1957b), South Australia, Australia, on 20 March 1912, by S.A. White (no. 636). From the Mathews Collection (no. 12820) via the Rothschild Collection.
 COMMENTS: Despite having written his catalog number on the label of the holotype, Mathews did not give it in the original description. However, he did give the date of collection, and the above specimen is the only one from Myponga collected on that date. In addition to the field label and a Mathews Collection label, the holotype bears Mathews and Rothschild type labels and a yellow ‘‘Figured’’ label, indicating that it was illustrated in Mathews (1922a: pl. 448, bottom left fig., opp. p. 412, text p. 414), where it is confirmed as the type of samueli.
Three additional Myponga specimens were cataloged at the same time and are paratypes: AMNH 600491 (Mathews no. 12823), female, 21 March 1912; AMNH 600492 (12821), male, 23 March 1912; and AMNH 600493 (12822), male, 22 March 1912.
 Mayr (1986b: 434) and others have credited the description of A. pusilla to John White; however, animals other than mammals were described by George Shaw in White (1790; see Wood, 1931: 626).

description: Part A. Asymmetric synthesis is a growing field in synthetic and medicinal chemistry. Investigations into the use of organocatalysts to engender chirality into organic molecules is of particular interest. Herein we present the study of the efficiency of camphor-based hydrazide organocatalysts in the asymmetric Friedel-Crafts alkylations of N-methylindole with alpha,beta-unsaturated aldehydes. In addition, the applicability of newly designed second-generation camphor-based hydrazide catalysts will be examined.* Part B. The synthesis of trisubstituted olefins represents an intriguing target in organic chemistry. However, the stereocontrolled synthesis of trisubstituted olefins can prove to be difficult, as mixtures of isomers are often obtained. A new methodology is presented herein that allows for the synthesis of single isomer trisubstituted olefins by a palladium catalyzed reaction of alkynyl esters with aryl and vinyl boronic acids under mild reaction conditions by using the simple phosphine ligand Et3P. The process provides alpha,beta-unsaturated esters with complete control of the stereochemistry and regiochemistry at the newly formed the double bond.* *Please refer to dissertation for diagrams.

description: The project provides context to the low level of participation of women in the industry and highlights the barriers to entry, retention, and career progression. It follows the administration of a survey by the EFBWW in 2020-2021, and entails:
• Collecting statistical data on the presence of women in construction, wood and forestry
• Identifying good practices and experiences related to gender issues in collective bargaining and collective bargaining agreements (CBAs) in the construction, wood and forestry industries. This involves a large-scale literature review on the transforming nature of the construction industry and data analysis of the EFBWW survey questionnaire.
• Producing a practical and industry specific toolkit for increasing the participation of women in the construction, wood and forestry industries.
• Identifying priorities for gender policies at various levels.
The toolkit is structured around five key themes: employment policy, industry culture and image, human resources policies and practices, working conditions, and training and education. Each thematic section connects the theme with gender equality, provides a checklist of specific actions to consider for improving gender equality, and examples of rules and practices highlighted in the survey by EFBWW national affiliates.
Unions representatives can take inspiration from this toolkit to spearhead, support and monitor actions, including through collective bargaining, with the aim to:
• Support change in current employment practices in the industry,
• Implement gender equality policies and gender sensitive occupational safety and health priorities, supported by specific targets, in the workplace and beyond,
• Change human resources practices through gender equality mainstreaming,
• Ensure female and male employees are entitled to decent work-life balance arrangements,
• Address gender imbalances in education and training.
A mechanobiological investigation of platelets
Creators: name: McGrath, Brianna
Publisher: name: Université d'Ottawa / University of Ottawa
Year: 2009
Subjects: subject: Engineering, Biomedical.

description: To investigate the mechanical behavior of platelets in response to an applied force, the deformation capacity of the membrane, as quantified by membrane progression into a borosilicate glass micropipette of defined internal diameter, is probed using a controlled range of negative pressure (0--7 cm H2O). In real-time, murine platelet membranes fail to demonstrate viscoelastic effects, but maintain an average linear deformation behavior (n = 11 platelets). Along with published deformation data using human platelets, a novel constitutive model generates a set of optimized material constants that accurately predict platelet membrane behavior. Using MATLAB (Version 7.4), the model is able to preserve platelet deformation at constant volume by implementing the Levenberg-Marquardt method, and ultimately generates an experimentally validated simulation program of micropipette aspiration. Finally, as a complement to these products, the tension and stretch responses to a specific magnitude of negative pressure are resolved.

 Acanthiza pusilla arno Mathews, 1912c: 44 (Arno Bay, Eyre’s Peninsula, South Australia).
 Now Acanthiza apicalis apicalis Gould, 1847. See Schodde and Mason, 1999: 201–203.
HOLOTYPE: AMNH 600572, adult male, collected at Arno Bay, 33.53S, 136.31E (Times Atlas), Eyre Peninsula, South Australia, Australia, on 7 September 1911, by S.A. White (no. 117). From the Mathews Collection (no. 9630) via the Rothschild Collection.
 COMMENTS: Mathews cited his catalog number of the holotype in the original description. In addition to White’s field label, the specimen bears Mathews and Rothschild type labels. A second Eyre Peninsula specimen was cataloged by Mathews (no. 9631) as having been collected by White on 28 August 1911. However, there are two such specimens collected at Lake Wangary, Eyre Peninsula. These are paratypes of A. p. arno: AMNH 600573 and 600574. Two additional specimens from the Eyre Peninsula are probable paratypes, but I did not find them in Mathews’ catalog: AMNH 600570, from Warunda Creek, collected on 6–16 October 1909 by J.W. Mellor; and AMNH 600571, collected at Port Lincoln on 3 September 1909. There are five additional paratypes in SAMA (P. Horton and B. Blaylock, personal commun.).
 As in the previous taxon, Mayr (1986b: 435) synonymized arno with A.apicalis albiventris; however, the type seems to agree most closely with A. apicalis apicalis, as indicated by Schodde and Mason (1999: 201–203).

Products and kinetics of the reactions of an alkane monolayer and a terminal alkene monolayer with NO3 radicals.
Creators: name: Bertram, Allan K.
name: Gross, Simone
Publisher: name: American Geophysical Union
Year: 2016

description: The reactions of an alkanethiol and a terminal alkenethiol self-assembled monolayer with NO3 radicals (in the presence of NO2 and O2) were studied. For the alkane monolayer, IR spectroscopy and time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (ToF-SIMS) confirmed the formation of organonitrates (RONO2). The observation of organonitrates is in contrast to the recent XPS data, which showed very little nitrogen-contg. surface species. The identification of organonitrates may help explain why significant volatilization of the org. chain was not obsd. in recent studies of alkane monolayer oxidn. by NO3 radicals. The reactive uptake coeff. (gamma ) of NO3 on alkene monolayers detd. in our study is higher than the values obtained in a recent study using liq. and solid alkene bulk films. A possible reason for this difference may be the location of the double bond at the interface. Using the gamma value detd. in our studies, we show that under conditions where NO3 is high the lifetime of an alkene monolayer in the atm. may be short (approx. 20 min). XPS, IR, and ToF-SIMS were used to identify surface functional groups after the oxidn. of the alkene monolayers by NO3. The results are consistent with the formation of C-O, aldehyde/ketone, carboxylic groups, and nitrogen contg. species. An edited version of this paper was published by AGU.

description: Approaches such as arts-based education optimize the goals of inclusive education, an emergent educational philosophy in Canada. However there is tension between this research, current classroom practice, and education policies. This study explores the perceptions of three primary/junior pre-service teachers as they engaged in the implementation of inclusion of students with exceptionalities using an arts-based approach. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with the participants (following Seidman's [2006] method) at three points during their teacher education experiences. Central findings and cross-case analysis focused on their contextual histories, teacher education experiences, and culminating reflections. Childhood events and environments influenced pre-service attitudes, while past engagement in the arts facilitated their implementation of an arts-based approach particularly in the absence of guidance from teacher education courses and their associate teacher. Participants cited academic, social, and personal benefits of implementing inclusion through the arts for students with exceptionalities. Implications for practice are discussed.

HOLOTYPE: AMNH 600568, adult male, collected at Venus Bay, 33.11S. 134.39E (USBGN, 1957b), South Australia, Australia, on 10 February 1910, by Edwin Ashby (no. 192). From the Mathews Collection (no. 6201) via the Rothschild Collection.
 COMMENTS: Mathews cited his catalog number of the holotype in the original description. In addition to Ashby’s label, the specimen bears both Mathews and Rothschild type labels. Paratype AMNH 600569, unsexed, collected at Venus Bay on the same day by Ashby, was cataloged by Mathews as number 9455 in October 1911 and would have been in his hand before the description was published. The number ‘‘566’’ on Ashby’s label refers to the number of Acanthiza pusilla in Mathews (1908a). There is an additional paratype in SAMA (P. Horton and B. Blaylock, personal commun.).
 As in the previous two taxa, Mayr (1986b: 435) synonymized venus with A. apicalis albiventris; however, the type seems to agree most closely with A. apicalis apicalis, as indicated by Schodde and Mason (1999: 201–203).

Dynamic stability in unilateral transtibial prosthesis users

Subjects: subject: Health Sciences, Recreation.

description: This study evaluated a multi-factorial, portable method of assessing dynamic-stability for unilateral transtibial prosthesis users. Twenty unilateral transtibial prosthesis users completed walking trials over various conditions (level and uneven ground, stairs, and a ramp). Plantar pressure data were collected using the F-Scan Mobile system. Six dynamic-stability parameters (relating to center of pressure motion, foot perturbations, and gait timing) were extracted from this data and dynamic-stability index values were calculated. Results showed that the parameters and index values differed between the intact and prosthetic limbs, between walking conditions, and between prosthesis users able-bodied subjects. Parameter and index values correlated poorly with stability criteria measures (Community Balance and Mobility Scale, Berg Balance Scale, Prosthetics Evaluation Questionnaire). Parameter and index calculations should be optimized for unilateral transtibial prosthesis users. Improved validation of the parameters and index is recommended, using an established, quantitative, dynamic-stability assessment method.

description: The onset conditions for ice nucleation on H2SO4 coated, (NH4)2SO4 coated, and uncoated kaolinite particles at temperatures ranging from 233 to 246 K were studied. We define the onset conditions as the relative humidity and temperature at which the first ice nucleation event was observed. Uncoated particles were excellent ice nuclei; the onset relative humidity with respect to ice (RHi) was below 110% at all temperatures studied, consistent with previous measurements. H2SO4 coatings, however, drastically altered the ice nucleating ability of kaolinite particles, increasing the RHi required for ice nucleation by approximately 30%, similar to the recent measurements by Möhler et al. [2008b]. (NH4)2SO4 coated particles were poor ice nuclei at 245 K, but effective ice nuclei at 236 K. The differences between H2SO4 and (NH4)2SO4 coatings may be explained by the deliquescence and efflorescence properties of (NH4)2SO4. These results support the idea that emissions of SO2 and NH3 may influence the ice nucleating properties of mineral dust particles. An edited version of this paper was published by AGU.

The study is the first in BC to look beyond patient ratings of their emergency room care in order to understand what can be done to make that care better. It takes a close look at factors that drive patient ratings of quality – and specifically those that underlie their reports of positive experiences – in order to identify what health care professionals do well and should continue to do. The report also takes a close look at the minority of patients who report negative experiences, to provide perspective about what providers can do to prevent similar experiences in the future. Factors such as staff courtesy, team work, comprehensive care and availability of nurses, appear to be more important than do wait times in influencing patient ratings." -CHSPR website
Synthesis of pyridines and pyrazines using intramolecular hydroamination
Creators: name: Rizk, Toni
Publisher: name: Université d'Ottawa / University of Ottawa
Year: 2010
Subjects: subject: Chemistry, Organic.

description: Despite recent progress, the scope and efficiency of intramolecular hydroamination has not yet reached its full synthetic potential. In particular, cyclizations to form 6-membered rings and applications in the synthesis of aromatic nitrogen heterocycles remain rare, despite the potential to access a variety of medicinally relevant heterocycles. The intramolecular hydroamination of alkynes presented offers a general approach to such nitrogen heterocycles from appropriately substituted acyclic precursors, in which the oxime functionality allows for a milder cyclization event and allows subsequently for the installation of one additional unsaturation (via loss of H2O). The discovery and optimization of an acid-catalyzed, hydroamination-isomerization-aromatization route for the synthesis of pyridines and pyrazines will be presented and discussed.* *Please refer to dissertation for diagrams.

description: Aims Drug law enforcement remains the dominant response to drug-related harm. However, the impact of incarceration on deterring drug use remains under-evaluated. We sought to explore the relationship between incarceration and patterns of drug use among people who inject drugs (IDU). Design Using generalized estimating equations (GEE), we examined the prevalence and correlates of injection cessation among participants in the Vancouver Injection Drug User Study followed over 9 years. In subanalyses, we used McNemar's tests and linear growth curve analyses to assess changes in drug use patterns before and after a period of incarceration among participants reporting incarceration and those not incarcerated. Findings Among 1603 IDU, 842 (53%) reported injection cessation for at least 6 months at some point during follow-up. In multivariate GEE analyses, recent incarceration was associated negatively with injection cessation [adjusted odds ratio (AOR) = 0.43, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.37–0.50], whereas the use of methadone was associated positively with cessation (AOR = 1.38, 95% CI 1.22–1.56). In subanalyses assessing longitudinal patterns of drug use among incarcerated individuals and those not incarcerated over the study period, linear growth curve analyses indicated that there were no statistically significant differences in patterns of drug use between the two groups (all P > 0.05). Conclusions These observational data suggest that incarceration does not reduce drug use among IDU. Incarceration may inhibit access to mechanisms that promote injection cessation among IDU. In contrast, results indicate that methadone use is associated positively with injection cessation, independent of previous frequency of drug use.

description: [Acanthiza whitlocki North]
 Acanthiza whitlocki North, 1909: 55 (Lake Way, East Murchison District, Western Australia).
 Now Acanthiza apicalis whitlocki North, 1909. See Mayr, 1986b: 436, and Schodde and Mason, 1999: 201–203.
 No type was designated in the original description, but North said that his type series of two males and one female was among a collection of birds made by F.L. Whitlock in the vicinity of Lake Way for H.L. White. Dates of collection were not given, but the name was published in September 1909. There are three of Whitlock’s Lake Way specimens in AMNH from the Mathews Collection, all three of which I found in the Mathews catalog. Apparently, when Mathews began to catalog his collection, about 1909, he twice entered portions of it in more or less systematic order, but without noting from whom the specimens were obtained. About 1910, he began entering specimens as they came to him, usually giving the source of the specimens. All three of these Whitlock specimens were entered in the early parts of the catalog and show no provenance. Two were collected on 17 August 1909 (nos. 4001 and 4002) and would appear to have been collected too late to have been used in the September 1909 description. The third specimen is entered as Mathews number 2198 and bears a Mathews type label, marked ‘‘Cotype’’, with a reference to North’s description. The specimen retains Whitlock’s field label but no H.L. White label. Mathews often received Whitlock specimens directly from the collector or from the WAM, but he also often removed labels from specimens that he obtained from others. Because Mathews labeled this specimen a co-type (5 syntype), it was necessary to trace North’s original type series. Longmore (1991: 15) listed a male and a female syntype in AM, and Longmore (personal commun.) informed me that the third syntype is in MV, HLW 2142, collected by Whitlock in the East Murchison, Western Australia, on 5 July 1909. Therefore, Mathews’ specimen in AMNH has no standing as a type.

description: Cette thèse se propose d'étudier les principales articulations de la sociologie de Jean-Charles Falardeau. Elle traite d'abord de faits d'ordre morphologiques telles l'écologie sociale, les structures sociales, la famille, les classes sociales, la paroisse et les recherches sociographiques; elle se consacre ensuite aux faits de nature physiologique tels les idées sociales du XIXe siècle, la littérature et la société canadiennes-françaises, notre société et son roman et l'imaginaire social et la littérature. En nous attardant aux principaux enjeux et débats ayant animé Falardeau au cours de sa carrière et à la lecture de sa correspondance, nous dégagerons sa contribution à l'essor de la sociologie québécoise.

description: Acanthiza pusilla consobrina Mathews
 Acanthiza pusilla consobrina Mathews, 1912d: 78 (Leigh’s Creek, Central Australia).
 Now Acanthiza apicalis apicalis Gould, 1847. See Mayr, 1986b: 436, and Schodde and Mason, 1999: 201–203.
HOLOTYPE: AMNH 600588, adult male, collected at Leigh Creek, 30.31S, 138.25E (Times Atlas), South Australia, Australia, on 16 September 1910. From the Mathews Collection (no. 11631) via the Rothschild Collection.
 COMMENTS: Mathews cited his catalog number of the holotype in the original description. He obtained a single specimen of the form from Edwin Ashby (no. 568), but it was collected by J.R.B. Love, whose name appears on the label and who collected other specimens for Ashby at Leigh Creek (Whittell, 1954: 455). In addition to Ashby’s label, the holotype bears Mathews and Rothschild type labels and a yellow ‘‘Figured’’ label, indicating that it was illustrated in Mathews (1922a: pl. 447, top fig., opp. p. 409, text p. 412), where it is confirmed as the type of consobrina.
 Mayr (1986b: 436) synonymized this form with A. apicalis whitlocki, and Schodde and Mason (1999: 201) showed a three-way area of intergradation between the nominate subspecies, with A. a. whitlocki and A. a. albiventris beginning close to the type locality of consobrina. The holotype is in very poor condition and perhaps faded, but it appears to be closer to Acanthiza apicalis apicalis.

description: Background: To address evidence-based effective communication skills in the formal academic half day curriculum of our core internal medicine residency program, we designed and delivered an interactive session using excerpts taken from medically-themed television shows. Methods We selected two excerpts from the television show House, and one from Gray's Anatomy and featured them in conjunction with a brief didactic presentation of the Kalamazoo consensus statement on doctor-patient communication. To assess the efficacy of this approach a set of standardized questions were given to our residents once at the beginning and once at the completion of the session. Results Our residents indicated that their understanding of an evidence-based model of effective communication such as the Kalamazoo model, and their comfort levels in applying such model in clinical practice increased significantly. Furthermore, residents' understanding levels of the seven essential competencies listed in the Kalamazoo model also improved significantly. Finally, the residents reported that their comfort levels in three challenging clinical scenarios presented to them improved significantly. Conclusion We used popular television shows to teach residents in our core internal medicine residency program about effective communication skills with a focus on the Kalamazoo's model. The results of the subjective assessment of this approach indicated that it was successful in accomplishing our objectives.
The effect of IL-7 on memory CD8+ T cell survival and function during health and HIV disease

description: Memory CD8+ T cells proliferate and gain effector function in response to antigen stimulus. It is possible that IL-7 may enhance antigen-mediated CD8+ T cell recall response, since IL-7 is required during a primary immune response. During HIV infection, CD8+ T cell function is impaired, and this could be due to reduced IL-7 activity on CD8 + T cells. In the present study, the effect of IL-7 on antigen-mediated proliferation and function was evaluated in HIV- and HIV+ individuals. IL-7 enhanced antigen-mediated proliferation of the CD8 +CD45RA-CD127+ T cells, but it did not significantly alter IFN-gamma production or CD107a/b expression. In HIV + individuals, CD8+CD45RACD127+ T cells did not significantly proliferate in response to IL-7. These data indicate that IL-7 can enhance certain aspects of memory CD8+ T cell function, and IL-7 activity is impaired in HIV infection. These findings are relevant to the ongoing studies of HIV pathogenesis and of IL-7 as a therapeutic in HIV infection and other diseases.

 Acanthiza pusilla jayi Mathews, 1914b: 98 (Jay Waterhole, MacDonnell Ranges, Central Australia).
 Now Acanthiza apicalis whitlocki North, 1909. See Mayr, 1986b: 436, and Schodde and Mason, 1999: 201–203.
SYNTYPES: AMNH 600593, male, and AMNH 600594, female, collected at Jay Waterhole, MacDonnell Range, Northern Territory, Australia, on 3 September 1913, by S.A. White (female no. 1695). From the Mathews Collection via the Rothschild Collection.
 COMMENTS: In designating the type, Mathews gave only the type locality in the original description. Because that does not distinguish between the above two specimens, both must be considered syntypes, even though the Mathews and Rothschild type labels were both tied on the female. I did not find them listed in the Mathews catalog, but they are the only two Jay Waterhole specimens that came to AMNH. White (1914) reported the results of his long expedition into central Australia and noted (White, 1914: 438) the description of jayi by Mathews, based on his specimens.
White (1914: 413) described the Jay Waterhole as situated on Jay Creek, 23.52S, 133.27E (USBGN, 1957b), west of Simpson Gap in the Macdonnell Ranges.

 Now Acanthiza apicalis whitlocki North, 1909. See Mayr, 1986b: 436, and Schodde and Mason, 1999: 201–203.
HOLOTYPE: AMNH 600596, adult male, collected on the Peron Peninsula, 26.00S, 113.45E (Johnstone and Storr, 2004: 512), Shark Bay, Western Australia, Australia, on 22 November 1913, by Tom Carter. From the Mathews Collection via the Rothschild Collection.
 COMMENTS: In the original description, the type was said to be a male with the above data. This is the only specimen in AMNH with those data, and it is marked ‘‘Type’’ by Mathews on Carter’s label and has a Rothschild type label. It also bears a yellow ‘‘Figured’’ label, indicating that it was illustrated in Mathews (1922a: pl. 447, left-hand fig., opp. p. 409, text p. 413), where it is confirmed as the type of peroni. It was accepted as the type by Mayr and Serventy (1938: 264).
