316 Count T. Salvadori—Notes 
Ogilvie-Grant, Ibis, 1905, p. 579 (Antipodes I.) ; Buller, 
Suppl. B. New Zeal. 11. p. 86 (1905). 
Whether C. hochstetteri of Antipodes Island is different 
from C. erythrotis of Macquarie Island is still to be settled ; 
Dr. Forbes, Dr. Sharpe, Messrs. Rothschild and Ogilvie- 
Grant agree that they are the same; I still venture to differ 
from them; and Dr. Lorenz-Liburnau is also inclined to 
admit that they are different. The question must be left 
sub judice till we have a good series of specimens from 
both localities for comparison. Unfortunately it is to be 
feared that the Parrot which was living in Macquarie 
Island is now extinct, at least Mr. Hamilton did not succeed 
in finding it (Tr. N. Zeal. Inst. xxvii. p. 573) ; it seems that 
it was still plentiful in 1880 (cf. Scott, Tr. N. Zeal. Inst. 
xiv. p. 561, or xv. p. 484; Hamilton, Tr. N. Zeal. Inst. 
XXVil. p. 573). 
A point which makes me reluctant to believe in the 
specific identity of C. hochstetteri and C. erythrotis is their 
different habitats in two far-distant islands. 
CYANORHAMPHUS cYANURUS Salvad.; Forbes & Robinson, 
Bull. Liverp. Mus. 1. p. 21 (1897) [Tahiti]; Buller, Suppl. 
B. New Zeal. ii. p. 87 (1905). 
Cyanorhumphus nove zealandie. cyanurus Lorenz, Ano. 
Hofmus. Wien, xvii. p. 314 (1902) (Meyer Ins., Macaulay 
Ins.). 
The Liverpool Museum possesses one example of this scarce 
species, but the locality assigned to it is no doubt wrong. 
Dr. Lorenz-Liburnau does not find that specimens from 
Meyer and Macaulay Islands have the tail as conspicuously 
blue as I found it in the typical specimens from Raoul Island. 
Examples from different islands must be compared.
