  of 
  

   the 
  notes 
  which 
  Oldroyd 
  (1927, 
  p. 
  18) 
  credited 
  to 
  Carpenter 
  are 
  not 
  those 
  of 
  Carpenter. 
  They 
  

   are 
  a 
  portion 
  of 
  Tryon's 
  (1880, 
  p.

  remarks 
  regarding 
  the 
  form. 
  

  

  Carpenter's 
  line 
  does 
  not 
  seem 
  adequate 
  to 
  validate 
  the 
  subspecific 
  name. 
  Carpenter's 
  type 
  

   has 
  not 
  been 
  found. 
  The 
  first 
  to 
  use 
  the 
  name 
  with 
  a 
  figure, 
  a 
  type, 
  and 
  definite 
  locality 
  was 
  

   Williamson. 
  Therefore, 
  if 
  the 
  form 
  deserves 
  subspecific 
  rank, 
  to 
  preserve 
  the 
  name 
  one 
  must 
  

   date 
  it 
  from 
  Williamson. 
  The 
  identification 
  of 
  the 
  form 
  in 
  her 
  report 
  was 
  made 
  by 
  Dall.
