Pterojjus mt/solensis. Gray ; 1870. — Based on two .specimens 

 collected by A. li. Wallace, the one in Mysol ( $ juii., 61.12.] 1,1 ), 

 the other in Ternate (2 jun., 00.8.26.11). Gray was evidently 

 unacquainted with Peters's description of Pf. chri/samfien ; there is 

 no reference to this latter name; in Gray's ' Catalogue' of 1870, 

 and Pt. 'tnysolensis is in reality a new name of Pt. chrysauchcn. 

 The JMysoI specimen may be fixed as the type. It is apparently 

 inseparable from Ternate and Hatchian individuals ; the mantle is 

 deeper in colour (golden ochraceous) than in any specimen I have 

 seen from Ternate and Batchiau, but this probably only because 

 these latter do not show the extremes of individual variation in 

 this respect; in the closely allied Pt. conspicillatas the mantle 

 varies from cream-buff to deep golden ochraceous. — Gray's " Pt. 

 mynolensis var. ceramensis " fCat. Monk. &c, p. 105, 1870) is a 

 distinct species, Pi. ocularis (infra, p. 381).
