13,096. Feejee Isls. U, S. Expl. Exp. T. R. Peale. Type. 



Three specimens obtaiued, but the above is evidently the type, 

 as can be seen by comparison with the original description. 



Ptilinopus purpuratus (Gm.). 



PtiUnopus furcatxs Peale. Birds U. S. Expl. Exp., 1848, p. 191. 



13,140. Society Isls. U. S. Expl. Exp. T. R. Peale. 



Three specimens were obtained, and as the above is a dull- 

 colored, immature bird, and does not agree very well with the 

 description, one of the National Museum specimens had better be 

 regarded as the type. 

 Globicera aurorae (Peale). 



Varpophaga aiirorce Peale. Birds U. S. Expl. Exp., 1848, p. 201. 



Only one of the four specimens collected by the expedition is in 

 the Academy (13,156). The type is one of the Washington 

 specimens.

21.430. Tongataboo. U. S. Expl. Exp. T. R. Peale. 



I have no means of ascertaining how many specimens of King- 

 fishers were obtained. The AVashington examples are as likely to 

 be the types as the above.
