MENURIL\E. 



*150. Menura superba, Davies. (286.) 



A female or young male (Parkinsonia superba), agreeing 

 with Vieillot's figure (Ois. Dor. ii. t. 16), but without the 

 loose ends of the tail-feathers, and with 16 not 14 rectrices. 



TEOGLODYTIDiE. 



151. Cyphorhinus musicus (Bodd.). (14.) 



Cayenne. Not mentioned by Latham as existing in the 

 Mus. Lever.

152. Malurus cyaneus (Gmel.). (58.) 



Motacilla cyanea, Ellis, Narrative Voy. performed by Capts. 

 Cook and Clerke, 1776-1780, 22; Gmel. Syst. i. 991. 165 

 (inch var. /3). 



Superb Warbler, Lath. Gen. Synops. iv. 501. 137. 



Sylvia cyanea, Lath. Ind. Orn. ii. 545. 142. 



Motacilla superba, Shaw, in White's Journ. Voy. New S. 

 Wales, 256, pi. (upper figure) ; idem, Nat. Misc. i. t. 10. 



A specimen marked Sylvia cyanea. 



Latham says that this species was in the Museum Leveri- 

 anum, and gives a figure of a specimen which does not agree 

 with our bird, which seems more similar to the individual from 

 the collection of Sir Joseph Banks, alluded to by Latham, 

 and to the figure in White's Journal (upper figure). La- 

 tham's figure and description seem, according to the measure- 

 ments and the habitat, perhaps to belong to Malurus longi- 

 caudus, Gould ; and if this supposition should be corroborated, 

 the name of " cyaneus " must be transferred to the latter 

 species, and for the other the next oldest denomination, i. e. 

 superbus, Shaw, would stand. 



153. Malurus lamberti, Vig. et Horsf. (156.) 

 Male; New Holland. 



154. Tatare longirostris (Gmel.). (10.) 



Of the specimen from Eimco 1 have already spoken under 

 n. 23 of this paper.
