1862.) OF THE SULA ISLANDS. 339 
EuRYSTOMUS PACIFICUS. 
Coracias pacifica, Lath. 
Eurystomus australis, Sw.; Gould, B. Austr. ii. t. 17. 
Hab. Sula Islands, Celebes, Bouru, Moluccas, and New Guinea. 
DENDROCHELIDON WALLACII. 
Dendrochelidon wallacii, Gould, P. Z. S. 1859, p. 100; Birds of 
Asia, fig. 
Hab. Sula Islands and Celebes. 
These specimens agree with those of Macassar in colouri g, but 
differ so little from fine Javanese specimens of D. klecho that I should 
not myself have ventured to consider them distinct. 
EvupyYNAMIS FACIALIS. 
Nigro-chalybeus ; fronte, gula facieque albis ; rostro pedibusque 
nigris. 
Male entirely glossy blue-black, except the chin and face, as far as 
the eyes, white; bill and feet black. 
Total length 14 inches ; wing 7} inches; tail 6$ inches. 
Hab. Sula Islands. 
This species, of which I possess but a single fine specimen, is very 
like £. melanorhynchus of Celebes, but is smaller and of different 
proportions, the wing of that species being 8 inches, and the tail 
83 mches in length. The white of the face is slightly mixed with 
black feathers, and two small white feathers occur in other parts of 
the plumage, which led my friend Dr. Sclater to suppose that it might 
be a case of incipient albinoism. This, however, would not affect 
the determination of the species, which depends on its different pro- 
portions from its nearest ally. 
PirTA CRASSIROSTRIS. 
Pitta crassirostris, Wallace, Proc. Zool. Soc. 1862, p. 188. 
Hab. Sula Islands. 
CRINIGER LONGIROSTRIS. 
Supra flavo-viridis, capite obscuriore ; subtus flavescens, abdomine 
crissoque vivide flavis ; remigum pogonio interno fusco-nigro ; 
rectricum margine interno apicibusque oblique, flavis; rostro 
obscuro ; pedibus pallidis. 
Rich olive or greenish yellow; throat and breast dusky yellow; 
the rest beneath pure yellow; primaries and secondaries with the 
inner web black ; the lateral tail-feathers with the tip and inner 
margin yellow, the four middle feathers entirely olive-yellow ; bill 
very long, horny black ; feet pale fleshy olive. 
Total length 10 inches; wing 43 inches; tail 41 inches; bill, to 
gape, 12 inch. 
fab. Sula Islands. 
Remarks.—This fine species is very distinct from C. favicaudus, 
Bp., by its long bill and longer and differently coloured tail.
