Remarks:
Mainophis robusta Macleay 1877 has been treated as a synonym of
Brachyorrhos albus by some authors (e.g., Goldman, Hill & Stanbury 1969; Iskandar & Colijn 2001), however, it belongs in the synonymy of Furina tristis.
Presence in the Aru Islands (Indonesia) needs confirmation (Tallowin, O'Shea, Hoskin, Vanderduys, Amey & Couper 2018).
Distribution:
Australia
(Queensland
[incl.
Torres Strait Islands]),
Indonesia
(Aru Islands,
Western New Guinea),
Papua New Guinea
(Eastern New Guinea).
