The genus Psittenteles (4 species) is the first one on our list which has no representative 

 in the vast island of New Guinea, and it has none in Halmahera, Salwatty, Waigiou, Ceram, 

 or Bouru ; but it extends from Celebes through Elores to Timor, to Timor-laut, and on to 

 Southern and Eastern Australia. Celebes is the most northern portion of its range and 

 Southern Australia its southern limit, while Elores and Southern Australia constitute its 

 eastern and western boundaries : —
