 marked as " white " ; in two others as " blue-black, with an obscure inner grey line, 

 and a broad outer white line."

4". Carpophaga chalconota Salvad. 



We have only six skins of this somewhat rare species. Four of these have no 

 exact localities, but are evidently from Dutch New Guinea, probably from the 

 Arfak Mountains. The others are collected on Mt. Cameron, in the Owen Stanley 

 Range, at an elevation of about 650(J ft. The iris is marked as red, feet pink, bill 

 black. 



The .latter two specimens are considerably larger than the other four. It is 

 therefore probable that a larger race can be separated, if more material is available 

 for comparison. 



48. Carpophaga rufigaster (Quoy et Gaim.). 



(Generally called rujicentris, but originally named as above !) 



We have 23 sjjecimens, and we are unable to sejiarate any races. We have 

 only one example from .Jobi, but that does not differ in the colour of the neck and 

 head (cf. Gut. B. Brit. Mus. XXI. p. 213).
