Hab. South Australia. Shot by Capt. Sturt at the Depot, lat. 

 29° 40'. June 9, 1845. 



This fine new species, discovered by the enterprising traveller Sturt, 

 is of peculiar interest, as being one of the few inhabitants of the 

 sterile and inhospitable interior of Australia, and as forming the 

 third species of the genus knovvn to belong to that portion of the 

 globė ; it is considerably smaller than either of its congeners, and 

 also difFers from them in the beautiful cinnamon colouiing of the 

 upper surface. It now forms part of the national collection at the 

 British Aluseum.
