In the more recently published " Tabular List of Australian Birds," by Dr. E. P. Ramsay, some changes 

 have been made in the nomenclature. Thus : The bird hitherto known as Ninox boobook is regarded as 

 distinct from that species, and is described as iV. albaria, Kamsay ; Myiagra phimbea becomes M. rubemla, 

 Latham ; Cumins inornatus becomes Cacomantis pallidus, Latham ; C. flabelU/ormis is now known as 

 Y'^nomantisJlabeUiformis, Latham ; Chatcites lucidus, Gml., is a synonym of C. plagosus, Latham ; Pufinus 

 breoicnuhis, Brandt, is now referred to the genus Neetris; Phmton plioenicurus, Gould, is now P. riibri- 

 <:nnda, Bodd.; and lastly, Itallus pectoralis, is now entered as Hypotainidia philippensis, Linn. The 

 tollowing additional birds are mentioned ■.—Circus Gouldii, Bp.; Majaqucus Gouldii, Button ; Graculus 

 ^'^elaiiolcucus, Vieillot ; and litmantopus leucocephalus.
