Length of the scapulo-coracoid, Tin. 



Distribution. — At present this species is only known from 

 the Te Ante Swamp and Poverty Bay, from whence the type 

 specimens came. But the skull, from the Taupo district, 

 figured on plate liii., figs. 1-3, of the "Extinct Birds of New 

 Zealand," probably belongs to a young individual. 



The metatarsus assigned to this species by Professor Owen 

 belongs to D. gracilis.
