A. orientalis {Ann. ^f/ls.■ Gen. (2) ix. i>. 566. 180(1), but, we cannot possibly consider 

 this as being a different species, tiie ciiaracters assigned to it not being 

 constant, no mule being Icnown to belong to it, no separate geographical dis- 

 tril)Ution being recognisable. A. fenicheli Madarasz (Ai/uila i. p. 92, liS94) from 

 German New Gninea, described from a single female, seems also to belong to 

 heiikei, the paler crown jirobably being dne to nonage. We cannot either make 

 out how .1. 1(1 lite rb((chi Heichenow {Orn. Miiniitsber. v. ]>. Kil, 1897, described 

 from one female') shonkl differ from the aberration described by Salvadori as 

 A. or/entali.'i in 189(1. The back of A. t. Itenhei ? is ratlier brighter rnfons- 

 cinnamon tlian in ^-l. t. arue/i.v.i ¥, the bird described and figured by Meyer 

 being immature, as sliown by moulting specimens in our collection.
