.3. Turdus insidiator, Raffles, " Sumatra." 



4. Calornis affinis, A. Hay, " Tipperah, Arracan, Tenasserim, Nicobars." 



Tr.Z.S. riii. I* is very questionable whether these last three species are separable. To them belong the 



p. 80. Malaccan, Sarawak, and Cambodian races, which are as yet without titles, but exhibit certain 

 differences. 



5. Calornis negJecta, nob., " Celebes, Sula Islands." 



Turdus jjahnarum, Bodd., =Turdus mauritianus, Gm.,hoih titles being founded on Le Merle 

 vert de Vile de France, of Montbeillard ; and PI. Enl. 648. f. 2 belongs to one of these species ; 

 but to which, it is now impossible to say. 



b. Dark green. 



6. Lamprotornis olscura, Forst. ; Bp. Consp. p. 417, " Gilolo." Given also from Batchian by 



Mr. G. R. Gray. A good species. Dark purplish green.

9. Calornis cantoroides, G. R. Gray. Like C. mysolensis, only that tlie tail is shorter and nearly 



square. Considered by Mr. Wallace to be a good species (P. Z. S. 1862, p. 343). 



10. Lanius pacijicus, Gm., ex Lath., =Calornis kittlitzi, O. Finsch, :=Lamprotornis columhinus, 



ap. Kittlitz (" Mariannes, Carolines, and Puynipet "), from the description, seems to belong 

 to this subgroup. 



B. Green with purple and violet reflections. 



11. Lnmprotoi'nis metallica, Tcmm. PI. Col. 226. Described from Timor and Celebes. The 



type was probably from Amboyna, perhaps from Australia, possibly from Timor.

 Australia." 



13. Calornis amboinensis, G. R. Gray, " Amboyna." Closely resembles the Australian species,
