113. — Grauoalus strenua, Schleg., Ned. Tijdschr., Dierk IV, 



p. U (1871). 



Mr. Goldie's collection contains some fine examples of this 

 species, they were obtained some 15 miles inland from Port 

 Moresby. 1 believe this is the largest billed Graucalus known. 



114 — Graucalus melanops, Lath ; Gould, Eds. Aust, fol.,vol., 



pi. 

 I have seen several specimens of this species from Port 

 Moresby, none of which appear to me to diflPer from those of 

 the same species found in Northern Queensland. 



115. — Graucalus angustifrons, Sharpe, Jomii. Linn. 8oe. Zool. 

 vol XIII, No. 66, p. 81 (1876). 

 Although somewhat similar to G. hypoleucos, this species is 

 quite distinct, and may at once be distinguisiied by the paleness 

 of the color on the head and the deep black frontal band, the 

 feathers of the lores and at the base of the upper mandible on 

 the forehead are slightly raised above adjacent featheis.

 This species is comparatively rare, two obtained were shot on 

 the Laloki River. 



117. — Graucalus (Edoliisoma) plumbea, Mtdl. 



Broadbent's collection contains an adult male of a species of 

 Graucalus which I think must be referred to this species. It is 

 closely allied to G. jardinii, a little smaller, and has a short 

 robust bill. The lores are black, the whole of the upper and 

 under surface plumbeous, the wings black margined outwardly, 

 with plumbeous narrowly on the primaries, which have a line of 

 white on the margin of the inner web ; all the tail feathers ex- 

 cept the two centre ones black ; the central ones, except at the tip, 

 and the bases of the three next on either side, washed with
