these forms have the throat white and appear to me inseparable 

 from typical G. hypoleucus from New South Wales. If kept 

 separate on account of the pale grey breast, which is a very 

 variable character, they should in any case stand as G. h. 

 angustifrons Sharpe, which was described from Port Moresby 

 [J. Linn. Soc, Zool. xiii. pp. 81, 499 (1878)]. 



It is remarkable that birds from the Am Islands are 

 referable to the white-ihroated G. liypoleucus (or G. h. 

 angustirostris) and not to the present species. Females of 

 G. papuensis are rather smaller than males, and may be 

 further distinguished by having the forehead and lores dull 

 brownish black instead of jet-black. 



" This Cuckoo-Shrike was only observed on the coast, 

 where it was quite plentiful in the mangrovo-swamps. It 

 was seen in pairs, and those obtained in March were shot in 

 a tree overhanging the tents." — C.H.B. G.
