Remark.—These three new species, together with O. erythro- 
cephalus, Vigors, and O. jouschistos, Hodgs., will, I believe, upon 
further examination, prove to form two separate divisions, distinct 
from the genus Orites; the species named erythrocephalus, leuco- 
genys, and glaucogularis forming one division, and jouschistos with 
niveogularis the second.
