12 THE AUSTRAL AVIAN RECORD [Vol. III. 



jaunatres et le bee noir ; l'autre, aussi de la Nouvelle-Hollande, 

 n'est pas plus gros que la fauvette rousse, a laquelle il ressemble, 

 ayant le dessus du corps roussatre et le dessous blanchatre. 

 Le premier de ces oiseaux se rapporte probablement a quelques- 

 uns de ceux qu'on a precedemment designes avec plus de 

 details, d'apres des descriptions etrangeres, et le second 

 pourroit etre nomme cucidus 'pusillus." 



The description of this suggests the N eoclialcites group, but 

 without examination of type it cannot be determined. At 

 the present time this is impossible, so the name must be 

 carried to a suspense list till later. 



On p. 142 Cuculus bengalensis Gmel. & Lath, is renamed 

 Centropus ferrugineus, which is not given in the Catalogue 

 of Birds. Two pages later a new species is described under 

 the name Centropus javanensis. This is utilised in the 

 Catalogue of Birds, Vol. XIX., p. 354, 1891, where it is quoted 

 as " Cuculus javanicus," which proves the reference to have 

 been copied second-hand. 



The other new name, p. 145, is Leptosomus vouroug- 

 driou, which is in the Catalogue of Birds, Vol. XVII., p. 2, 

 where a printer's error occurs, the first part of the specific 

 name reading " vourong." 



On p. 265 Trogon rosalba is proposed as a better name 

 than Trogon collaris. This name, as of this introduction, 

 does not appear in the Catalogue of Birds, but is quoted 

 as of the Regne Animal, 2nd Ed., 1829, when Cuvier adopted 

 Dumont's suggestion. 



In Vol. XIII. Dumont included under the genus Edolius 

 the birds catalogued by Vieillot under Dicrurus : neither 

 Edolius mystaceus, p. 517, nor Edolius leucoph^us, p. 518, 

 appear in the Catalogue of Birds in the British Museum, 

 Vol. III. The former was given to Levaillant, Ois. Afr., 

 pi. 169, which Sundevall in his Critique concludes to have 

 been an artifact, the latter to pi. 170 of the same work. 

 The figure recalls the Ceylon bird Buchanga insularis, Catalogue 

 of Birds, Vol. III., p. 252, while Sundevall suggests cineraceus 

 Horsfield as equivalent.
