therefore include these localities with, some doubt. Mr. Wallace (P. Z. S. I860, p. 485) notes 

 only one Graucalus as inhabiting Flores, G. personatus, S. Miiller.

Ilah. Gorontalo (Forsten, fide Uartlauh). 



This is a most remarkable form, and seems to be rare. In 1864 only one example was 

 contained in the Leyden Museum. Another, a male, is preserved in the British Museum. The 

 types (for S. Miiller also described the female, /. c.) were obtained by Forsten in North-eastern 

 Celebes. Mr. AVallace (P. Z. S. 1802, p. 342) has added the Sida Islands to its range, on 

 S. Miiller's authority. I have failed in finding any statement of S. Midler to that efiect.

Ilah. Tondano, Gorontalo [Ilarthmh) ; Macassar {mus. nostr.). 



This and several Indo-Malayan and Papuan species are classed by Dr. Hartlaub (I. c.) under 

 Ca7npepha(/a, Vieillot, tjie type of that genus being the African Campcphaga nigra, Vieill. This 

 species, in its turn, Dr. Hartlaub transfers to Lesson's genus Lanictcrus. I venture, however, to 

 refer the Celebean bird to Volvocivora, Ilodgs., as it is nearly allied to the type of that genus, 

 Lanius silcns, Tickell {lSo5),=: Cehlepi/ris luguhris, Sundev. (\S37),z= Volvocivora mclascliistos, 

 Hodgs. (1837). 



On examination I find that Edoliosoma melanolcema, a title published without description, 

 refers to S. Miiller's species ; while the E. morio, of the Hand-list, no. 5097, appears to be 

 C. Ji)nhriatus, Temm. The British-Museum examples of the last are noted from Celebes; but 

 that locality requires further confirmation. 



Lalage, Boie.

Hah. Menado [mus. nostr.). 



S. Miiller, Ilartlaub, O. Finsch, and others have hitherto included Celebes within the range 

 of the Lalage of Java, Turdus dominicus, P. li. S. Miiller, = r. terat, Bodd.,=r. orientalis, Gm. 

 Two examples of a Lalage, one of an adult male, and the other of an adult female, received by 

 me from !Mc-nado, are to be readily distinguished from the Javan bird by having the lower back 

 and rump pure white, the long upper tail-coverts only being grey. In this respect the Celebean
