In Ibis 1878, 271: 1879, 182, 189; 1880, 226; 1881, 138; 1882, 512, Messrs. Layard and 

 Tristram pointed out that the chestnut-throated Myiagrae of New Caledonia, of the Loyalty Islands and 

 of the New Hebrides, which had hitherto been regarded as the females or young of the black-throated ones, 

 were perfectly distinct, by showing that females with black throats existed, that both males and females of 

 the chestnut races with fully developed breeding powers were to be found, and that the several forms were 

 in the habit of hunting for food together in pairs, male and female. The nomenclature employed by these 

 authors is somewhat incorrect: the black-throated race of New Caledonia is M. Caledonica Bp. (cf. 

 Rev. et Mag. Zool. 1857, 55, description of 6), not M. viridinitens Clray; the latter species came from 

 the Loyalty Islands (Gray, P. Z. S. 1859, 162) and is the same as M. Luguieri Tristr.; the red-throated 

 species of New Caledonia, spoken of as M. Caledonica, is, I tind, identical with M. perspicillata Gray.
