Ornithology of the Solomon Islands. 131 
SYMMORPHUS AFFInis, Tristr. /.c. p. 440. 
Unknown to me. 
EponiosoMa sALomonis, Tristr. ibid. 
This requires comparison with HE. remotum, Sharpe, Mitth. 
Zool. Mus. Dresd. i. 3, p. 369, from New Ireland (Brown), 
New Hanover (Huesker), and the Duke-of-York Islands 
(Brown). 
GRAUCALUS, sp.inc. ¢, Tristr. J. c. p. 441. 
I think that Mr. Tristram is right in supposing that the 
female alluded to belongs to G. sudlineatus, Sclat. 
GRAUCALUS MoNnoTONUS, Tristr. ibid. 
I should like to see this bird, which, judging from the de- 
scription, seems very like G. papuensis, although I do not 
suppose it can be the same. 
PacHYCEPHALA CHRYSTOPHORI, Tristr. ibid. 
Mr. Tristram, in describing this bird, does not mention any 
allied species; but from its yellow chin I should say that it 
comes very near to P. astrolabi, Bp., also from the Solomon 
Islands, with which therefore it may require comparison. 
PriLopus CERASEIPECTUS, Tristr. l. c. p. 442. 
I suspect this to be the same as P. salomonis, Gray, de- 
scribed from a female specimen, now in the British Museum. 
CarporHaGa (GLOBICERA) RICHARDSI, Tristr. /. c. p. 443. 
Certainly the same as my Carpophaga (Globicera) rufigula, 
Salvad. (Atti R. Ac. Sc. Tor. xiii. p. 536, 1878, et Monogr. 
sottogen. Globicera, p. 14, 1878), the type of which is in the 
British Museum, Mr. Tristram seems to have overlooked 
my Monograph. 
Macropyveia arosst, Tristr. ibid. 
This very likely = M. castanea, Ramsay, mentioned in a 
letter of this gentleman to me (vide supra). 
Turin, Zoological Museum, 
December 12th, 1879.
