41. Caprimulgus macrurus Horsf. 

 One adult male. Wing 191 mm. 



42. lyngipicus grandis Hargitt. 



At 1000, 2000, and 6000 feet. " Iris dark brown ; bill and feet blackish." 

 Known from Lombok and Flores. (Picm moluccensis, Wallace, I.e.) 



43. Monachalcyon fulgidus (Gould). 



Only met with in the hills at about 2000 and 5000 feet above the sea. " Iris, 

 eyelids, beak, and feet all uniform orange-red; claws brown." An immature bird is 

 black above, the underparts washed with brownish buff. 



This species is evidently congeneric with M. monachus, as there are no struc- 

 tural differences whatever. 



44. Halcyon australasiae (Vieill.). 



Up to about 2000 feet above the sea. " Iris deep brown ; maxilla and tip of 

 mandible black ; rest of mandible white." 



45. Halcyon chloris (Bodd.). 



The Lombok form of this widespread and variable species is rather large, and 

 the top of the head and upper back are very dusky, thus closely approaching 

 H. sordidus Gould, which is probably not more than a subspecies of H. chloris. 

 The wing of Lombok specimens is 115 119 mm. long. 



*46. Cuculus poliocephalus Lath. 



Old and young from heights of 4000 and 5000 feet. c? ad. " Iris bleared 

 reddish brown ; maxilla black ; mandible greenish ; gape at base ochre ; eyelids 

 bright ochre." ? . " Iris outwardly dull creamy, inwardly brownish ; maxilla 

 black ; mandible and gape greenish yellow." 



*47. Cacomantis threnodes Cab. 



Shot at 1000 feet. 3. "Iris red-brown, inwardly paler; bill black; gape 

 reddish; feet reddish ochreous, claws blackish." Rather large and pale. 



48. Centropus javanicus (Dumont). 



? at 3000 feet. " Iris inwardly dark brown, outwardly pale brown." The 

 Centropus affinis of Wallace's list. 



*49. Trichoglossus mitchelli Gray. 



It is with great satisfaction that we are able to make known the home of this 

 handsome Lory, which was hitherto unknown. Doherty collected a large series in 

 the hills of Lombok, at elevations of 3000 to 4000 feet. In both sexes he found 

 the iris orange, the beak orange, more yellow at tip and darker at base, the feet 

 bluish. In the young bird the bill is uniform dull orange. The sexes are alike in 

 colour and size. Immature birds have blackish edges to the red feathers of the
