7. Description of a New Species of Lobiophasis and a New

Assistant, Zoological Department, British Museum. 
[Received February 6, 1877.] 
When my friend Mr. Ussher was appointed Governor of Labuan, 
the first thing that I naturally asked him, was to try and get addi- 
tional specimens of the Lobiophasis bulweri. I have received several 
letters from him, announcing the successive failures of his attempts 
to obtain more examples of this bird; but at last I heard from him 
that, although the collector whom he had sent to the Lawas river had 
not met with the longed for Pheasant, he had procured a pair of an 
apparently new species, which I might expect to see before long.
