Bergroth writes: — " Tinganina hiess die letzte iiberlebende 

 von den ausgestorbenen Ureinwohnern Tasmaniens. Sie 

 starb 1876/ ; This unfortunate woman's name is usually 

 spelled Truganini. The remark is necessary, because the 

 generic name may unnecessarily be emended by some future 

 writer. The British Museum also possesses a specimen from 

 Launceston in Tasmania.
