80 VISCOUNT WALDEN ON THE BIRDS OF CELEBES. 



belong the Malaccan, Sarawak, and Cambodjan races, which are as yet without titles, 

 but exhibit certain differences. 



5. Calornis neglecta, nob., " Celebes, Sula Islands." 



Turdus palmarum, Bodd., =Turdus mauritianus, Gm., both titles being founded on 

 Le Merle vert de Vile de France, of Montbeillard ; and PI. Enl. 648. f. 2 belongs to one 

 of these species ; but to which, it is now impossible to say. 



b. Dark green. 



6. Lamprotornis obscura, Forst. ; Bp. Consp. p. 417, " Gilolo." Given also from 



Batchian by Mr. G. E. Gray. A good species. Dark purplish green. 



7. Calornis crassirostris, nob., " Lombock." Collected by Mr. Wallace. Very dark 



green. Bill high and stout as in Aplonis. The locality may not be correct. 



8. Calornis mysolensis, G. K. Gray, "Mysol." Closely allied to, if not the same as, 



C. obscura. 



9. Calornis cantoroides, G. R. Gray. Like C. mysolensis, only that the tail is shorter 



and nearly square. Considered by Mr. Wallace to be a good species (P. Z. S. 

 1862, p. 343). 



10. Lanius pacificus, Gm., ex Lath., =Calornis kittlitzi, O. Finsch, = Lamprotornis 



columbinus, ap. Kittlitz (" Mariannes, Carolines, and Puynipet"), from the descrip- 

 tion, seems to belong to this subgroup. 



B. Green with purple and violet reflections. 



11. Lamprotornis metallica, Temm. PI. Col. 226. Described from Timor and Celebes. 

 The type was probably from Amboyna, perhaps from Australia, possibly from Timor. 



12. Calornis purpurascens, G. R. Gray, =C. metallica, Temm., ap. Gould, "North and 

 East Australia." 



13. Calornis amboinensis, G. R. Gray, "Amboyna." Closely resembles the Australian 

 species, but is smaller. 



14. Lamprotornis minor, Mull.; Bp. Consp. 417, "Timor." Wallace gives it also 

 from Flores and Lombock. A very distinct species. 



15. Calornis viridescens, G. R. Gray, "Aru Islands." Near to C. amboinensis. Also 

 given from Dorey by Mr. G. R. Gray under the inaccurate title of C. virescens 

 (P. Z. S. 1859, p. 158). 



16. Calornis gularis, G. R. Gray, " Mysol." Apparently nothing but C. viridescens. 



17. Calornis nitida, G. R. Gray, " New Ireland," ex Less. & Garnot, Voy. Coq. Zool. i. 

 p. 343. Seems to belong to the green and purple group.
