LOBIVANELLUS, Strick/. 
lobatus (Lath.). Five. Eastern Australia (Moreton Bay ; New South 
Wales). South Australia. Tasmania (Launceston, May). 
We can find no record of the occurrence of this species in Tasmania. No. 5 was 
‘*shot near Launceston, and has the usual habit of plovers. It is, I am informed, 
abundant about Ross, Oatlands, &c., in the centre of the island, but not usually 
seen within a great distance of this. Iris, yellow; bill, yellow ; legs, lower joint, 
black, upper joint, light brown. The bare skin about the eye also yellow.”

tricolor (/Horsf.). Two. Timor. 
We fail to see why Charadrius tricolor, Vieill. 1817, should invalidate Vanellus 
tricolor, Horsf. 1820, which antedates V. cucu//atus, Temm. 1830, especially as 
the two species are now, and have always been, referred to two quite distinct 
genera. We have, therefore, adopted Horsfield’s name for this species.
