3. C. desmaresti desmaresti (Gam.). 

 Beran Peninsula, -near Dorey, numerous. 



Connected with occidentalis by intermediate formsi, which may be separable 

 again as an intermediate subspecies, though this is not probable, considering the 

 close neighbourhood of the countries inhabited by these two forms. See anted, 

 p. 73. 



4. C. desmaresti occidentalis Salvad. 



Salwatty, Batauta, and western coast of the Beran Peninsula. SeertMte';,p. 73. 



5. C. desmaresti blythi Wall. 

 Mysol. See a7ited, p. 73. 



6. C. cervicalis Salvad. and D'Alb. 



South-Eastern New Guinea from the Brown River to the Fly River. See 

 anted, p. 73. 



7. C. diophthalmus diophthalmus (Hombr. & Jacq.) 

 Salwatty, Mysol, Koffiao, Waigin, and Beran Peninsula, 



8. C. diophthalmus coccineifrons Sharpe. 



Replaces No. 7 in parts of British New Guinea and in Kaiser Wilhelm"s 

 Land, but more material must be studied to confirm its validity and distribution. 

 See anted, p. 74. 



9. C. diophthalmus aruensis (Schleg.). 



Am Islands. The specimens from South-Eastern New Guinea are perhaps 

 separable ! See anted, p. 74. 



10. C. diophthalmus virago Hart. 



Fergnsson and Goodenough Islands, D'Entrecasteanx group. 



The male is very much like that of C. d. ariu'nsis, but the female has a 

 large red patch on the forehead. See Nov. Zool. II. p. 61 (1895), Nov. Zool. VI. 

 pi. IV. (1899). 



11. C. diophthalmus inseparabilis Hart. 



Sudest Island, Louisiade group. 



In this remarkable form the sexes are alike, and resemble th^ female of virago. 

 Nov. Zool. V. p. 530 (1898), Nov. Zool. VI. pi. IV. (1899). 



12. C. diophthalmus macleayana Rams. 



North Queensland. 



The female closely resembles that of virago, the male those of virago and 

 aruensis. The female differs chiefly from that of virago in having the red frontal 

 patch surrounded with blue, and the lores more blue. The male differs from 

 those of both virago and aruensis in its blue loral patch and line on the forehead, 

 and some other minor differences. Cf. Nov. Zool. II. p. Gl, V. p. 530, VI. pi. IV. 



13. C. coxeni Gould. 



This large form of Eastern Australia, from Southern Queensland to New South 

 Wales, is so large, and the forehead has practically no red in both sexes (which 

 differ but slightly), that it seems right to keep coxeni specifically separate. 



14. C. melanogenia melanogenia (Schleg.) 

 Am Islands.
