935. Coracina graueri Neum. = Coracina graueri. 



Coracina graueri Neumann, Bull. B.O. Club, xxiii. p. 11 (1908 — " forest 90 km. west of Lake 

 Albert Edward "). 



Type : (J (not ?), forest west of Lake Albert Edward, 14. ii. 1908. Rudolf 

 Grauer leg. No. 2042. 



936. Graucalus pusillus ombriosus R. & H. = Coracina pusilkt ombriosa. 



Graucalus pusillus omhriosus Rothschild & Hartert, Nov. Zool. 1905, p. 264 (western central group 

 of Solomon Islands, New Georgia, Rendova, Gizo, Kulambangra). 



Type : ^ ad., Gizo, 31 .x. 1913. A. S. Meek CoU. No. A 695. 



937. Edoliisoma melas meeki = Edoliisoma melas meeki. 



Edoliisoma mdas meeki Rothschild & Hartert, x. p. 207 (1903 — " British New Guinea and Fly 

 River "). 



Type: $, Milne Bay, south-eastern New Guinea, ll.iv.l899. A. S. Meek 

 leg. No. 2458. 



I cannot agree with Ogilvie-Grant's remarks on p. 121 of the Jubilee Volume 

 of the Ibis, No. 2, 1915, who states that m-eeki cannot be separated from E. m. 

 melas, as the whole series of females from British New Guinea is pale. 



A female from the Sattelberg, collected by C. Wahnes, ll.xii.l905, seems 

 also to belong to meeki. 



938. Edoliisoma melas tommasonis R. & H. = Edolisoma melas tommasonis. 



Edoliisoma melas tommasonis Rothschild & Hartert, Nov. Zool. x. p. 206 (1903 — Jobi Island). 



Type : $ ad., Ansus, Jobi Island, in the Geelvink Bay, 12. xi. 1883. Powell 

 leg. No. J 965. 



939. Edoliisoma montana minus R. & H. = Edolisoma montanum minus. 

 Edoliisoma montana minus Rothschild & Hartert, Nov. Zool. xiv. p. 464 (1907 — British New Guinea), 



Type : ^ aA., Bihagi, head of Mambare River, north side of the Owen 

 Stanley Mts., 29 . iii . 1906. A. S. Meek Coll. No. A 2672. 



' (Ogilvie-Grant, Ihis, Jubilee Suppl. ii. p. 127, " prefers " not to acknowledge 

 this subspecies, but in our now very fine series is not one that reaches the usual 

 average size of E. m. montanum, which has wings of 135-141*5 mm., while the 

 south-eastern males are often under 130, and run up to 132, according to Ogilvie- 

 Grant in one case .to 134. E. m. minus is therefore a good subspecies, though its 

 " difference is merely a matter of size " as Grant said.) 



940. Edoliisoma schisticeps vittatum R. & H. = Edolisoma schisticeps vittatum. 



Edoliisoma schisticeps vittatum Rothschild & Hartert, Nov. Zool. xxi. p. 5 (1914 — Fergusson and
