 remarks. Three species are described as new — Lalaye leucopy- 

 gialis, Munia brunneiceps, and Calornis neglect a. The following 

 species are figured — Trichoglossus meyeri, Buceros exaratus, 

 6 et 5 , Artamus monachus, Geocichla erythronota, Myiolestes 

 helianthea, Hypothymis puella, Cyornis rufigula, Volvocivora

 termedia, Zost. atrifrons, Acridotheres cinereus, and JEgialites 

 peronii. Special accounts are given of the known species of 

 Centrococcyx and Calornis, and much information about Phoe- 

 nicophaes and about the Hornbills of Celebes.
