Contrast between North and South Celebes. Almost all links between the Lesser 

 Sunda Islands and Celebes occur in the Southern Peninsula, but not always in 

 the North. This is shown by Butastur liventer, Chrj/sococcj/x malayanus and basalis, 

 Musckapula westermanni, Lalage timorensis, Zosterops intermedia, Munia pallida and 

 M. pnnctulata nisoria, Calornis minor, Macropygia macassariensis , Geopelia striata, 

 which are not known from the North. Up to the present Loriculus exilis, 

 though allied to L. flosculus of Flores, is only known from the North, but we 

 anticipate its discovery, or of a race of it, in the South. 



On the other hand there are as well as L. exilis Schl. several peculiar species 

 which occur in the North and not in the South, for instance, Ninox ochracea 

 Schl.), Striw inexpectata Schl., Meropogon forsteni Bp., Lj/ncornis macropteriis Bp., 

 Pitta forsteni B-p., Myza sarasinorum M.&Wg., Enodes erythrophrys (Temm.), 

 Carpophaga poecilorrhoa Briigg., Gymnocrex rosenbergi (Schl), Aramidopsis plateni 

 "VV. Bias., Megacephalon maleo (Hartl.) and others, besides such migratory species 

 as only touch the North. It must, hoAvever, be taken into consideration that 

 it is more than probable that at least some of these species wiU still be found in 

 the South, which is much less thoroughly explored than the North, and the Centre 

 is almost unknown. Conclusions, therefore, cannot be drawn from these data. 



That there are a number of forms differing specifically or subspecifically in 

 the North and South Peninsulas will appear from the pages of our book. These 

 representative forms are:
