* I include this here because specimens / and y are called co-typc.i in 

 the Catalogue. But /is really the type (holotype), as no other specimen 

 is referred to in the original description. This male was lent fordescrip- 

 tion to Gould by Sir J. Richardson, and then transferred to the Museum 

 at the same time as a number of Gould specimens. 



t Specimens b and c are stated in the Catalogue to be co-types of 

 Gray's Halmatwus bvevicatidatus ; but on the fir.st appearance of the 

 name — in 1838 — it would appear to have been an accidental renaming of 

 Quoyand G&nn&rA' sKanyiirusbrachyurus, so that the Museum sjjecimens 

 would not have been co-types of it. 



I Really the type, the original description containing no reference to 

 Mr. Rynoe's specimen a, wrongly called co-type in the Catalogue. 



§ The typical specimens of " Antechinus" unicolor and ferriiyineifrons 

 •were collected by a ^Ir. Pampliu, who was also the captor of the Psettdu- 

 mys awtralis oralis described by me in the ' Annals ' for December 

 1921. Although the exact locality was not recorded for any of them, 

 it seems probable that they were all from one region — namely, the coast 

 district to the north of Svdney — for reason-; indicated in my descrii)ti(m 

 of the rat. It appears to be not improbable that both tlie marsupials* 

 represent valid (though possibly exterminated) local ract-s of the species 

 to which I referred tliem in 1888.
