The form inhabiting S.E. New Guinea was separated by 

 Dr. Sharpe as C. coccineifrons ; in the ' Catalogue of Birds ' 

 I could not recognise this form as distinct, hut Dr. Reiche- 

 now says that the birds from Kaiser Wilhelrn's Land 

 (similar to those from S.E. New Guinea) have the yellow 

 crown-band wider and purer, the green of the upperside 

 lighter, the red on the cheeks and forehead of a different 

 shade. A. B. Meyer (J. f. O. 1892, p. 256, and Abh. Ber. 

 Dresd. Mus. 1893) quotes similar differences. Still 

 Rothschild and Hartert come to the conclusion that 

 C. coccineifrons cannot yet be regarded as a well-established 

 form. 



C. festetichi, wrongly described from the Solomon Islands, 

 probably must be attributed to the eastern form of C. dio- 

 phthalmus.
