Calyptorhynchus stellatus, Wagler. 
Taken by Professor Baldwin Spencer during his expedition into Central Australia. Set of 1 egg, 
taken during November, 1896. (See Campbell’s book, page 609.) This rare egg measures in inches 
= 1°83 x 1°35, and seems rather small for such a large bird. In July, 1894, I founda nest of the 
Black Cockatoo (Calyptorhynchus funereus) in a tall hollow tree near Grafton, Clarence River, N.S.W., 
and it contained two young birds. 
162 480 2 WHITE COCKATOO, 
Cacatua galevita, Latham. 
Taken at Nymboida, 30 miles south-west of Grafton, N.S.W., by an aboriginal named Nymboi 
Jack, on 3oth September 1897. I saw the bird leave a hollow as I drove past, and then sent the 
nigger up to Nymboida in order to rob it for me. Nest was placed in hollow spout of a tall Flooded 
Eucalypt (Zucalyptus rostrata). Set of 2 eggs. I have frequently seen large flocks of these Cockatoos 
in Southern Queensland and North-eastern New South Wales, where they often do great damage 
to the grain crops. I noticed numbers of them on Belltrees Station, near Scone, N.5.W., during the 
early part of April this year (1907), where they were sporting in the tall and stately River Oaks 
(Casuarina Cunninghamiana), growing on the banks of the Upper Hunter River. We have often 
found their nests in the neighbourhood of Grafton, in the Clarence River district, and they were 
sometimes placed at a great altitude in the hollow spout of some Eucalyptus tree. Specimen A. 
measures = 1°92 X 1°35.
