168 479 2 GANG GANG COCKATOO, 
Callocephaton galeatum, Latham. 
These 2 rare eggs were taken by Maxted, a bird trapper, in the mountains near Nowra, on the 
south coast of New South Wales, on 26th November, 1899. Nest 
was placed in a dead hollow spout of a Eucalypt tree, at an altitude 
of nearly 60 feet. These are the only eggs I have ever seen of 
this Cockatoo, and I think I was very fortunate to procure such rare 
specimens, as they are represented in very few collections. Speci- 
men A. measures in inches = 1°40 x 1°07. Specimen B. = 
1°32) X D077. 
169 493 I KING LORY, 
Aprosmicdus cyanopygius, Vieillot. 
This single egg was cut from the trunk of a tall dead tree on 
the Black Mountain, near Nymboida, Clarence River, N.S.W., on 
1st November, 1898. It took nearly a whole day’s chopping into 
the trunk of the tree before the nest was located, and all the time 
the climber, who sat ina seat, was suspended by a rope from a 
limb above, and he felt quite knocked out by the time he regained 
terra firma. The nest was placed 30 feet down the barrel of the 
tree, from the hollow at which the bird entered. The nest con- 
tained 3 eggs, two of which were unfortunately broken through 
the dirt and chips of wood falling into the hollow, notwithstanding 
that every precaution had been taken, and wadding was very care- 
fully lowered down over the eggs prior to the last chopping. One 
rare egg, a perfect specimen. Taken by W. McEnerny and Sid.
