This specimen, referred by Strickl. I, s. c. to (7. flaviventris, Sco- 

 poli, agrees closely with Swainson's type of C. rubiculus, a name, 

 according to Mr Sharpe, synonymous with C. solitarius, a Cuckoo 

 found in West and South Africa. The Malaccan origin of this skin 

 is doubtless erroneous. C '. flaviventris, Scopoli, probably cannot now 

 be satisfactorily identified.
