THE JACKSONIAN OOLOGICAL COLLECTION. 
Taken at Frisch’s paddock, at South Pine River, north-east of Brisbane, Queensland, by C. Frisch 
and Sid. W. Jackson, during December, 1884. This pair is white ground color, and very sparingly 
marked with small dots on larger ends. 
This is the most interesting set of the series of Grallina’s eggs, as it is an albino clutch ; they are 
pure white, and without a mark of any kind. Taken at Swan Creek, east of South Grafton, Clarence 
River, N.S.W., on 26th August, 1894. Taken by W. McEnerny, Frank and Sid. W. Jackson Set of 
4 eggs. Nest was built in an Apple tree (Angophora subvelutina). Specimen A. measures = 1°12 x 0°85. 
Specimen B. measures = 1°17 x 0°86. 
COACH WHIP BIRD, 
Psophodes crepitans, Latham. 
A set of 4 eggs for this bird is very rare ; however, these four came from the one nest and at the 
one time. Taken at Vinegar Hill scrub, Tyringham, 55 miles south-west of Grafton, N.S.W., on 16th 
August, 1895, by G. Covley. Beautifully marked clutch. Specimen A. measures = 1°07 x 0°79. 
Taken in scrub at the Grafton Common, N.S.W., on 28th August, 1892, by J. Williams and Sid. 
W. Jackson. These 2 eggs are very large specimens, and most beautifully blotched. Specimen A. 
measures = 1°20 x o'8o. 
Taken at Clontarf, Middle Harbour, Sydney, by Chas. Reid and Sid. W. Jackson, on 6th October, 
1go1. The ground colour of this set is of an unusually rich blue, and the markings, which consist of 
hair-like lines and hieroglyphics, are confined to the extremity of the thick apex. Handsome set of 
3 eggs. Nest built in mass of vines of the wild Sarsaparilla (Smilax glyoyphylla.) Specimen A. 
measures = I°It x 0°77. 
Taken at Coutt’s Crossing scrub, Orara River, near Grafton, N.S.W., on 2nd October, 1895, by 
Sid. W. Jackson. Very nicely marked clutch, but very much lighter in the ground colour, as compared 
with the latter, set No. 153. Set of 3 eggs. This concludes the handsome series of these eggs. 
Specimen A. measures = 1°15 x 0°82. 
BLACK-THROATED WHIP BIRD, 
Psophodes nigrogularis, Gould. 
Clutch of 2 eggs, taken in the Blackwood River district of South-west Australia by S. Hall, on rst 
September, 1897. These eggs are much paler in the ground colour to those of 7. crepitans, of East 
Australia. Specimen A. measures = 1°11 x 0°73. 
NORTHERN COACH WHIP BIRD, 
Psophodes crepitans-latealts, North. 
(No. 224 Hall's Key.) 
I really think this northern form is a good species ; its note and its eggs are somewhat different to 
that of P. crepitans. This pair, however, was taken near Cairns, North Queensland, by T. Williams, 
on 23rd September, 1899, Eggs very small and pale color. Specimen A. measures = IOS) x) O°7R;
