The Philippine Calornis, for long confounded by several authors with the Javan and the 

 Malaccan species, was first recognized as distinct by Dr. Cabanis [l. c). A good series in 

 Dr. Meyer's collection enables me to fully confirm the opinion of Dr. Cabauis. 



It is a large species of a dark bronze-green colour, and ranges nearest to Calornis neglecta, 

 nob. As labelled by Dr. Meyer, the sexes do not diff'er; we must therefore assume that 

 examples in streaked plumage are young individuals. The eggs are described in ' The Ibis,' 

 1872, p. 97t. 



Lcmiprotornis marjnns, von Rosenb., Schlegel (Ned. Tijdsch. Dierk. iv. p. 18, " Island of 

 Soek" — 1871), is a Calornis with the two pairs of middle rectrices exceedingly developed and 

 measuring more than twice the length of the body.
