1094 LIST OF WESTERN AUSTRALIAN BIRDS, 



49. SlTTELLA LEUCOPTERA, Gould. 



This is apparently a common species ; several specimens of both 

 sexes obtained. 



50. Cuculus inornatus, Vig. & Horsf. 

 Apparently plentiful, and extending over the whole of the 

 continent. 



51. Mesocalius palliolatus, Lath. 



(Chalcites osculans, Gould.) 



This species, though nowhere plentiful, appears to be distributed 

 over the whole of Australia. Specimens from N. S. Wales and 

 South Australia do not appear to differ from those from the 

 N. W. coast. 



52. Scythrops nov^-hollandi^:, Lath. 



53. Centropus melanurus, Gould. 



Both species apparently plentiful ; it is doubtful if C. melanurus 

 is specifically distinct from C. phasianus of N. S. Wales. 



54. Cacatua gymnopis, Sclater. 



I have received this species from the interior provinces, the Gulf 

 District, and Port Darwin ; it ranges therefore over the whole of 

 the interior and the N. W. Coast of Australia. 



55. Cacatua roseicapilla, Viell. 



The specimens of this species received from the N. W. Coast 

 appear to be stunted, being slightly smaller than those found in 

 N. S. W. 



56. Calopsittacus nov^-hollandi^e, Gml. 



Found also throughout the Gulf district, as well as in the interior 

 provinces, both north and south. 



57. Ptistes coccineopterus, Gould. 

 A smaller and more intensely coloured race than those called 

 Ptistes erythropterus, of N.S.W. which it otherwise resembles.
