Dr. Finsch (l.r.) declares that this interesting binl is not; a Flycatcher, bnt 

 belongs to the Laniiehie or Prior>opi(hic of Sliar[ie. This conception is quite 

 erroneous. Dr. Finsch .apparently based it only on a superficial comparison of the 

 strange bill ; but had he t.iken into consideration the plumage, style of coloration, 

 strong rictal bristles, etc., combined, he would agree that Ifetemmtx is a Flycatcher, 

 and that it is best placed in the neighbourhood of Monarrha.
