Peling and Sula. The Peling or Banggai Archiiielago and the Sula Group 

 seem to have formed in comparatively recent times one large island. Although 

 the island of Peling lies only about 12 miles from the coast of East Celebes, 

 the majority of the characteristic Celebesian genera {Microstictus , Pj/rrhocentor, 

 Phoenicophaes , Cranorrhinus, Rhabdotorrhimis , Monachalcyon, Cittura, Ceycopsis, 

 Meropogon, Coracias, Myza, Malta, Cataponera, Enodes, Streptocitta, Megacephalon, 

 Aramidopsis) were not included in the only collection yet made upon the island, 

 while the peculiar species or subspecies are generally the same as Sula forms. 

 Fifteen species are identical with Sula forms, or are local races thereof, but 

 only four agree with Celebes forms not known to occur in Sula; ten Sula species 

 were not sent from Peling and Banggai (though some of them are pretty sure 

 to occur there) ; while twenty-two Celebes species not known from Sula were 

 contained in the above collection from the neighbouring mainland of Celebes, but 

 not from Peling or Banggai (see, Abh. Mus. Dresd. 1896, Nr. 2, pp. 1 — (5).
