An interesting account of the habits and nesting of this species in Java, and of the peculiar 

 structure of its spinal column, has been given by Bernstein (J. fiir O. /. c); also detailed 

 observations on parts of its internal anatomy, and of that of C. affinis (Horsf), by the same author, 

 in the Tijdschrift (/. c). The skeleton of the Celebean bird will have to be compared with that 

 of the Javan before the absolute identity of the two species can be established.
