* The type of T. Tieinii, Cabanis, which was originally supposed 

 to have come from Japan, and to be identical with T. varivs, PaUas, 

 has since been ascertained to have come from Australia, and to be 

 T. lunulatus, Latham. Mr. Gumey, however, informs me that he 

 has seen T. varivs from Japan ; and Mr. Swinhoe obtained it in 

 Formosa, giving it ai first the name of T. haneii, which he afterwards 

 withdrew.
