I have restored westermanni to the rank of subspecies of C. papuanus because, 

 in two specimens I had alive, the black band separating the fore- and hindneck was 

 most distinct, and the birds showed all the markings of the type figured, and 

 differed obvionsly from the two other subspecies of C. papuanus. The distribution 

 of these forms is, however, not clear. 



I have united C. unappendiculatus rothschildi, C. u. ab. laglaizei, and others 

 with C. occipitalis, as no two specimens of C. unappendiculatus from the mainland 

 round Geelvink Bay and Jobi are exactly alike, and I do not believe they are 

 distinct. 



C. altijugus of Sclater is not a synonym of C. c. salvadorii, but is the same 

 bird as my C. c. intensus, and the name altijugus has the priority.
