80. RJiipklnra flabelUfcra victor iae (White-shafted Fantail) 

 — A very common bird, in all classes of timber, at all the 

 places we visited. A pair was seen building a nest near 

 Robe on October 26th, and another pair feeding half grown 

 yonng on the same day.

 Cuckoo-Shrike) — Seen in pairs occasionally in big timbered 

 country throughout the trip. A nest found at Beachport on 

 October 10th was in a stringy bark about 20 feet from the 

 ground, and contained three fresh eggs. 



84. Pomatostomus temporalis (Babbler) — Common at 

 Beachport, Robe and Kingston. Their great stick nests 

 were more often seen than the birds. They were breeding, 

 and were feeding nearly full grown young. I saw nests near 

 Narracoorte which I attributed to these birds, but did not 

 see the birds themselves. Kingston must be near the Wes- 

 tern limit of the range of this bird, though Mr. J. W. Mellor 

 found them on the Coorong some years ago; Captain White 

 saw nothing of them on a recent visit to that locality. A 

 female collected near Beachport measured in total length 

 27.5 cm. Iris, dark brown; bill, black; base of lower 

 mandible, white; legs and feet, black; inside of mouth, black; 

 j^Tlate. flesh colour. Stomach contents, insect remains. A 

 male collected near Kingston measured 29.25 cm.; iris, dark 

 brown; bill, black, with white line down the culmen and under 

 the lower mandible; inside of mouth, yellowish; stomach con- 

 tents, remains of small beetles.
