Recently published Ornitholot/uud IVurks. 457 



contains, aniongst otlier articles, one by the late Mr. (j. 11. Gray 

 on some of the birds collected during the voyage. Mr. Gray 

 did not live to see his contribution through the press ; but 

 all of the new sjKJcies seem to have been previously described 

 in the ' Annals and Magazine of Natural History ' for 1870. 

 These, as avcII as some others, are now illustrated on 21 

 excellent plates by Smit. The species figured are : — Accipiter 

 alboyularis, CJray, from San Christoval I. ; Collocalia hypoleuca, 

 Gray, from I'ji or Gulf I., and C. uropyfjiulis, Gray, from New- 

 Hebrides; Eurystomus crassirostris, Scl.,from Uji ; Glyciphila 

 caledonica, Gray, from New Caledonia, and G. fiavot'mcta, 

 (jray, from Eramanga I.; Philemon sclateri, Gray, from San 

 Christoval; Anthocheru aubryana, J. Yerr. & Desm., from 

 New Caledonia; Zosterops flavifrons, Gmelin, from New 

 Hebrides, and Z. xanthochroa, Gray, from New Caledonia ; 

 Myiagra melanura, Gray, from Yaima Lava, Banks's grou]), 

 and M. caledonica, Bp., from New Caledonia; Rhipidura 

 spilodera, Gray, from Vanua Lava; Lalage banksiana, 

 Gray, from Vanua Lava ; Pachycephala chlorurns, Gray, 

 from New Hebrides ; P. monariensis, Yerr. & Desm., from 

 New Caledonia, and P. xanthetrcea, Forster, from New Cale- 

 donia ; Eopsaltriu caledonica, Lath., from New Caledonia, 

 and E. cucultata, Gray, from New Hebrides; Lorius hypoeno- 

 chrous, Gray, from the Solomon Is. ; Trichoglossus massena, 

 Bp., from San Christoval and New Hebrides, and T. palnia- 

 rum, Gmel., from New Hebrides; Ouculus bronziuus, Gray, 

 from New Caledonia ; Carpophaga brenchleyi, Gray, from 

 San Christoval ; Macropyyia crassirostris, Gould, from the I. 

 of Guadalcanar, Solomon Group; Meyapodius brenchleyi, 

 Gray, from Tanna and Sandwich* or Yate I., New He- 

 l)rides ; and Eulabeomis lafresnayanus, Yerr. & Desm., from 

 New Caledonia. 



We believe that many of the specimens collected by Mr. 

 Brenchley are in the British ]\Iuseum ; the rest arc to be 

 seen in the museum at ]\Iaidstone, in Kent, of which ^Ir. 

 Edward Bartlett is now Curator.
