BY E. P. KAMSAY, F.L.S. 95 



localities and towards the Louisiades, are as might be expected, 

 identical with species from the Solomon Islands, — Caloems nico- 

 barica, (Linn.), Chahophaps chrysochlora, fWagl.J ; Ptilopus rivoli 

 Carpophaga van-wyckii, C.pacifica, C .spilorrhoa, Loriushypamochrous 

 Trichoglossus massence, Sauloprocta tricolor, and many others as will 

 be seen in the List showing the distribution of the species. Out of 

 the 224 species enumerated about 95 of them are found in 

 Australia, 7 only of these being Sea birds, and if I add to 

 this list other Australian species obtained by D'Albertis, and 

 during the Macleay Expedition, the number of Australian species 

 found in New Guinea will reach 150 — and out of the 140 genera 

 107 are also found to be common to both Countries. 



Of fifteen genera and twenty species of mammals known to me 

 from the South East Coast of New Guinea ; thirteen genera and 

 ten species at least, are also found on the adjacent coast of 

 Australia. 



List showing the distribution of the species. The names of 

 those I have recently described as new are in small capitals.
