The present species differs from D. cauta in having the 

 sides of the neck grey and the inner wehs of the primaries 

 brown, characters which appear to be of importance, but 

 have not hitherto been noticed. 



34. DlOMEDEA CHLORORHYNCHA Gmel. 



Diomedea chlororhyncha Filhol, Mem. Ac. France, Pass. 

 Venus, Miss, de File Campbell, iii. pt. ii. p. 51 (1885) ; 

 Buller, B. New Zeal. ii. p. 202 (1888). 



Thalassogeron chlororhynchus Salvin, Cat. B. Brit. Mus. 

 xxv. p. 451 (1896). 



According to Filhol, this species breeds on Campbell 

 Island. 



Captain Hutton writes : — " There is a specimen in the 

 Christchurch Museum from the coast of New Zealand/' ' 



35. Phgebetria cornicoides. 



Diomedea fuliginosa var. cornicoides Hutton, Ibis, 1867, 

 pp. 186, 192. 



Diomedea fuliginosa Filhol, Mem. Ac. France, Pass. Venus, 

 Miss, de File Campbell, iii. pt. ii. p. 50 (1885). 



This species appears to me to be quite distinct from 

 P. fuliginosa. 



Captain Hutton writes : — " According to Capt. Bollons, 

 the Sooty Albatros breeds on the cliffs of the Antipodes, 

 Auckland, and Campbell Islands, commencing at the latter 

 end of October. I think that P. cornicoides should be 

 recognised as a distinct form."
