JIab. Timor (fi/Jie) ; Macassar, Flores ( WaUace) ; Tolofoko (northern peninsula of Ualma- 

 heira), Little Key Island {Schlegel). 



The Celebean habitat of this Pigeon rests on the authority of Mr. Wallace {I. c). The 

 Gilolo bird discovered by the late Dr. Bernstein is stated by Professor Schlegel (/. c.) not to 

 differ from the type species.

Professor Schlegel (Nederl. Tijdschr. Dierk. iii. p. 343) mentions the fact that, in this species 

 only, the breast and abdomen are sometimes washed or even spotted with black. Mr. Cassin 

 (United States Exped. p. 266) pointed out that while C. bicolor (Scop.) possesses fourteen rectrices, 

 the North-Australian C. luctuosa { = M. sj)ilorrhoa, G. R. Gray) has only twelve. An examination 

 of examples in my collection fully bears out this obseiTation ; for I find that examples of 



1. M. bicolor (Scop.), ex New Guinea, has fourteen rectrices. 



2. „ „ ex Batchian, has fourteen rectrices. 



3. M. luctuosa (Reinw.), ex Sula Islands, has fourteen rectrices. 



4. „ „ ex Menado, has fourteen rectrices. 



5. „ „ ex Menado, has twelve rectrices. 



6. M. spilorrhoa, G. R. Gray, ex Port Albany, has twelve rectrices. 



7. „ „ ex Somerset, has twelve rectrices. 



The Menado example, with only twelve rectrices (no. 5), appears to have originally possessed 

 two more, which have been lost.
