In Ibis 1878, 271; 1879, 182, 189; 1880, 226; 1881, 138; 1882, 512, Messrs. Layard and 

 Yistrain pointed out that the chestnut-throated Myingrae of New Caledonia, of the Loyalty Islands and 

 *^i the New Hebrides, which had hitherto been regarded as the females or young of the black-throated ones, 

 were perfectly distinct, by showing that females with black throats existed, that both males and females of 

 ^ le chestnut races with fully developed breeding powers were to bo found, and that the several forms were 

 in the liabit of hunting for food together in pairs, male and female. The nomenclature employed by those 

 authors is somewhat incorrect: the bla ck- throated race of New Caledonia is M. Caledonica Bp. (cf. 

 J^^Gv. et Mag. Zool. 1857, 55, description of cJ), not M. viridinitens Gray; the latter species came from 

 the Loyalty Islands (Gray, P. Z. S. 1859, 162) and is the same as M. Luguieri Tristr.; the red-throated 

 species of New Caledonia, spoken of as M. Caledonica, is, I find, identical with M. perspicillata Gray.
