colour; hill bluish-white tinged with buff; legs of a light 

 dusky slate-colour. 



Total length, measured in the flesh, 16*0 inches. 



The occurrence of this species in the western division of 

 West Australia shews a considerable extension of its range. 

 It was known to occur in the interior of Queensland, New 

 South Wales, and South Australia, and possibly in North- 

 western Australia. 



[The Bare-eyed Cockatoo is gregarious, and was very 

 plentiful on the Gascoyne River, going about in flocks of 

 many hundreds. — G. C. S.~\

Iris dark brown ; bill of alight bluish-horn-colour; legs 

 dusky. 



Total length, measured in the flesh, 225 inches. 



I am quite uncertain what name to apply to this immature 

 bird. It seems doubtful whether C. stellatus is really distinct 

 from C. macrorhynchus Gould and C. banksi (Lath.). 



[I found this species not uncommon on the Upper 

 Gascoyne River : it is gregarious in its habits. — G. C. >SL]
