51. Phalacrocorax sulcirostris (Brandt). 



One specimen. I am folhjwiug Salvadori and others in calling this bird 

 P. sulcirostris. It certainl}- differs cons]iicnously from P.fuscicollis of India, which 

 it resembles very much at first sight in the colour of the wing-coverts and njijier 

 parts generally, and especially in its shorter liill; but some skins from Australia 

 have shorter and finer beaks again, while otherwise resembling onr specimens from 

 the Malay Archipelago. There is probably one species in India, P.fuscicollis, and 

 one in the Archipelago reaching to Australia, which is found in two forms — a finer 

 billed one in Australia, a stouter billeil one in the Malayan Islands.
