The islands to the eastward of Celebes (the Papuan or Austro-Malayan region of 
Mr. Wallace) are characterized by a large number of peculiar genera. Of these at least 
forty-four are absent from Celebes. Besides the families of the Epimachide and the 
Paridiseide, important groups, such as Podargus, Pachycephala, and Manucodia, are all 
wanting. Nor does a single Papuan Muscicapine form occur in Celebes. Papuan 
genera belonging to the two great orders Psittaci and Columbe, orders which are so 
largely developed in the Australian region, and in no part of that region to a greater 
extent than in its Papuan subregion, are found in Celebes. This fact is justly regarded 
as sufficient to stamp the ornis of that island with a Papuan character. Yet among the 
Psittacide such essentially typical Australian genera (also Papuan) as Lorius and Pla- 
tycercus do not extend to Celebes. And several peculiar Papuan types are there 
unknown. The Columbe of the Papuan subregion are well represented in Celebes; 
yet, with one exception (Phlogenas), all the Papuan genera of the Gouride are 
missing’. 
By the annexed table it will also be seen that several remarkable Papuan forms 
belonging to another characteristic Papuan family (Alcedinide) are not found in 
Celebes. 
* Calenas is a migratory form.
