No. 2.] THE AUSTRAL AVIAN RECORD 47 



1045. 



For this form I used Cabanis's name of F. gouldi, 

 as he proposed that name and described a bird from 

 Port Phillip, Victoria. I now find that Bonaparte, in 

 the Consp. Gen. Av., Vol. I., p. 365, 1850, had previously 

 introduced it, ex Cabanis's MS., for the bird figured by 

 Gould. As neither Bonaparte's nor Gould's birds were 

 from definite localities and the descriptions are indefinite, 

 the only course now open is to designate New South Wales ^ 

 as the type-locality of Falcuncidus gouldi Bonaparte, and 

 to describe the Victorian form as follows : — 



Falcunccjlus frontatus iredalei, subsp. n. 

 Green-bellied Shrike-Tit. 

 Reference List No. 1,045, p. 376. 



Differs from F. f. frontatus in its darker colour and 

 heavier bill. 



Type, Ringwood, Victoria, No. 1,372. 

 Range, Victoria. 



1072a. Neositta pileata whitlocki, subsp. n. 

 Mountain Black-headed Tree-runner. 



Differs from. N. p. broomi in its lighter-coloured back, 

 but not as pale as milligani. 



Type, Stirling Ranges, South-west Australia, No. 

 10,482. 

 Range, Stirling Ranges. 



1073a. Neositta pileata mortoni. 



Northern White-winged Tree-runner. 



Neositta mortoni North, Ibis, 1912, p. 118. 

 Port Essington, Northern Territory. 



This name appeared after my Reference List came out.
