392 DR. L. F. DE BEAUFORT, BIRDS FROM DUTCH NEW GUINEA. 



Birds in the British Muséum or the splendid work of Salvadori : „Ornitologia délia Papuasia 

 e délie Molucche". In some instances I hâve cited the more récent monographs of the 

 „Tierreich". The „Notes on Papuan Birds" by Rothschild and Hartert, recently published in 

 the Novitates Zoologicae (vol. VIII, X and XIV) hâve also been of great use to me. 



I am glad to hâve the opportunity of thanking Dr. E. D. van Oort, keeper of the 

 ornithological department of the Muséum in Leiden vvhere I compared my spécimens with 

 those in the collection, for his assistance and valuable advice.
