The interesting pair of birds now sent by Mr. Forbes 

 settles the question concerning the colour of tlie sexes, which 

 are black and similar to each other, as already mentioned 

 by Count Salvadori (Ann. Mus. Civ. Genov. xiv. p. 229). 

 Mr. Elliotts conclusion, that the Sumatran P. coronatus 

 (RafB.) is the female of P. galericulatus, is certainly erroneous.
