description: <i>Pardalotus melanocephalus bowensis</i> Salomonsen <i>Pardalotus melanocephalus bowensis</i> Salomonsen, 1961c: 24 (Bowen, central eastern Queensland). Now <i>Pardalotus striatus melanocephalus</i> Gould, 1838. See Schodde and Mason, 1999: 128–131, and Woinarski, 2008: 401. HOLOTYPE: <b>AMNH 699100</b>, unsexed, collected at Bowen, 20.00S, 148.10E (Times Atlas), Queensland, Australia. From the Museum Godeffroy (no. 4687) via the Rothschild Museum. COMMENTS: Salomonsen cited the AMNH number of the holotype in the original description and said that his type series comprised four specimens in AMNH from Bowen, Inkerman, and Cardwell. The three paratypes are: <b>AMNH 699101</b>, male, Inkerman, Spring Range, September 1907, collected by W. Stalker; <b>AMNH 699102</b>, female, Inkerman, 19 October 1907, collected by W. Stalker (no. 367); <b>AMNH 699103</b>, male, Cardwell, collected by K. B[roadbent]. Someone has added the date 11 February 1897 to the Rothschild label of this last specimen. This holotype was probably collected by Amalie Dietrich, who collected for the Godeffroy Museum at Bowen in 1869 and 1870 (Finsch, 1872; Whittell, 1954: 200–201). Cesar Godeffroy’s large private collection of ethnographical and zoological specimens was sold at auction after his death in 1885 and widely scattered. The bulk of his bird collection was acquired by ZMH (Stresemann, 1975: 229), and the above specimen was probably acquired by Rothschild on exchange from ZMH.
