8terxa bergii, Lie lit. 



Colpocephah/m crassipes, Piaget. 



Recorded by Piaget (1880, p. 506) from a specimen 

 of *S'. poliocerca in Ley den Museum. As this is Gould's 

 species from S. E. Australia, now merged in aS'. bergii^ 

 we have included the reference, although no direct 

 Australian locality is given. 



Hydralector gallinaceus, Temm. 



Ballicola sulcata, [Piagetl, Johnston & Harrison, 1912, 

 Syn. Oncophorus sukatus, Piaget, 1880, p. 218.

Docophorus novcehoU tndice, Giebei, 1866,

Giebei described the form from the above host 

 (quoted as Grus novcehollandice) as a distinct species. 

 Piaget does not uphold the distinction. 

 Lipeurus giganteus, Le Souef & Bullen. 



Le Souef & Bullen, 1902, xviii., p. 156, fig. 1. 



Lipeurus gruis, [Linn.l Johnston & Harrison, 1912. 



Syn. L. ehrceus, Xitzsch, 1818. 



L. hebrceus, Xitzsch, 1866, p. 382: Giebei^ 

 1874, p. 226. 



Taschenberg (1882, p. 133) records the occur- 

 rence of L. hebrceus on G'rus novcehollandice. 



We have examined specimens of the last twa 

 species from the same host from Queensland, Victoria,, 

 and X'.S. Wales. 



Ibis Molucca, Cuv. 



Lipeurus ibis, ,Le Souef & Bullen. 



Le Souef & Bullen, 1902, xviii., p. 156, fig. 2. 

 Host quoted as Threskiornis stictipennis. 



Platibis flavipes, Gould. 



Ornithobius fuscus, Le Souef. 



Le Souef (1S02, xix., p. 91) states that he has 

 met with 0. fuscus on the Australian spoonbill. 

 Possibly it lias only straggled from a swan.
