32 VISCOUNT WALDEN ON THE BIKDS OE CELEBES. 



Prioniturus, Wagler. 



3. Prioniturus platurus (Kuhl), Consp. p. 43, "Nova Caledonia" (1820).

 Prioniturus wallacei, Gould, Birds of Asia, pt. 14, " Celebes" (1862). 



Hab. Menado, Macassar (Wallace). 



Dr. O. Finsch in his great work (Papageien, ii. p. 395) has thoroughly disentangled 

 the synonymy of this species, the true habitat of which Mr. Wallace was the first to 

 discover. The existence of any species of the genus, much less of this one, in the island 

 of Timor, is quite unauthenticated ; nor has this bird been found in New Caledonia. 



4. Prioniturus flavicans, Cassin, Proc. Ac. Nat. Sc. Phil. vi. p. 73 (1853); Gould, 



Birds of Asia, pt. 14.
