The references to this "species, although very numerous, are remarkably devoid of informa- 

 tion. The Marquis of Tweeddale, in his article upon this species (Ibis, 1870, p. 23) includes in 

 the synonymy le Sucrier bronze, Levaill., and Oinnyris omens, Vieill. ; this bird, if not entirely 

 fictitious, as is probably the case, would, in my opinion, more probably belong to a species which 

 has yet to be rediscovered than to C. lotenius.
