1098 LIST OF WESTERN AUSTRALIAN BIRDS, 



78. Gerygone albogularis, Gould. 



Similar to the New South Wales birds. A specimen said to be 

 the young of this species, has a decided wash of yellow on the 

 head and throat, is slightly different in the markings on the tail, 

 and may prove to be the young of a distinct species. 



79. MlRAFRA HORSFIELDII, Gould. 



Slightly deeper in tint than individuals from N. S. Wales. 



80. ClNCLORAMPHUS CRURALIS, Gould. 



Mr. Gould speaks of this as a distinct species under the name of 

 C. cantillmiS) but I have never yet met with any specimens which 

 I could specifically separate. 



Both varieties are found in N. S. Wales, and in South and 



West Australia. 



81. Ptilotis notata, Gould. 



A bird plentiful all over Australia north of the Herbert River, 

 very variable in size, and in the extent of the yellow marks on the 

 ear-coverts; the smallest I identify as Mr. Gould's P. gracilis^ 

 which is found as far south as Cardwell. 



82. Philemon sp % 



The specimens here referred to may be the young of P. 

 urgenticeps ; they certainly are not the young of P. citreogularia 

 which they resemble, but have an ashy grey patch behind the ear- 

 coverts on the side of the neck, and a narrow line of the same 

 tint on the hind neck ; on the sides of the neck is a distinct patch 

 of citron yellow, and the cheek is slightly tinged with the same ; 

 throat silvery white, with a dark brown or blackish band 

 extending from the ear-coverts, below it a narrow bare line 

 extends from the nostrils over the eye. There is also a narrow 

 triangular bare space behind it ; all the feathers of the wings, 

 their coverts, and of the inter-scapular region are margined with 

 ashy white. 



83. Entomopiiila albogularis, Gould. 



This species extends into the Gulf country and interior provinces 

 of Queensland, where, however, it is rare.
