Hah. Macassar, Java, Malacca, Banjarmassing {mus. nostr.). 



An interesting account of the habits and nesting of this species in Java, and of the 

 peculiar structure of its spinal column, has been given by Bernstein (J. fiir O. I. c.) ; also 

 detailed observations on parts of its internal anatomy, and of that of C. affinis (Horsf.), 

 by the same author, in the Tijdschrift [I. c). The skeleton of the Celebean bird will 

 have to be compared with that of the Javan before the absolute identity of the two 

 species can be established.
