G. CALOPSITTACUS. 135 



Adult. Very much like L. nasica, only a little larger, the naked 

 space round the eyes larger and darker, of a blue-lead colour. 



Hub. Western Australia. 



I have seen some living specimens in the Menagerie of the 

 Zoological Society of London ; they show most clearly those distinctive 

 characters which, according to Gould, are not so apparent in dry 

 skins.
