Guinea bird seems to be intermediate, I propose to keep it under 

 M. carinata.

Wben compared witb M. flavigaster of IST.E. Australia, the Port- 

 Moresby skin seems to be a little larger, and to have a narrow 

 yellow eyebrow. Total length 4"6 inches, culmen 0'45, wing 3"1, 

 tail 2*1, tarsus 0"55.

The male is scarcely distinguishable in any way from T. bona- 

 partii of the Aru Islands, and has the mantle dark purple, but 

 so nearly the colour of the mantle in T. bonapartii that there can 

 be no reason for separating the birds specifically, as far as I can 

 see at present. Certainly the species is not T. cyanocephala. The 

 female agrees apparently with that of the Aru-Island bird, but 

 has the blue throat perhaps not quite so far extended.

Eather lighter on the under surface than typical Javan and 

 Sumatran specimens, but evidently of the same species. It agrees 

 best with a Dorey skin obtained by Wallace.
