—* Several species of the New Holland birds in the Society’ s citection were de- 
scribed by Dr. Latham in his * General History," but did not at the same time receive 
their scientific names, which were intended to appear in a second edition of the * Index 
— Ornithologicus.” Being unwilling in our present undertaking to anticipate the names 
of the first describer of these birds, we applied to Dr. Latham for permission to use his 
manuscript names, which he kindly granted. In the case of the species before us, he 
expressed his wish to dedicate it to Lord Stanley, who had presented him with the spe- 
cimen from which he drew his original description; and we feel much pleasure in uniting 
with him in paying this well-merited compliment.
