PL 67. Anas cheneros, Forst., Descr. Anim., p. 92 (1844 : 

 Dusky Bay, New Zealand). 

 = Gasarca variegata (Gm.) ; cf. Salvadori, Cat. B., xxvii., 



p. 183. 

 "Dusky Bay, N.Z., April 7, 1773." 

 PI. 68. Anas pteneres, Forst., Descr. Anim., p. 338 (1844 : 

 Straits of Magellan). 

 = Tachjeres cinereus (Gm.) ; cf. Salvadori, Cat. B., xxvii., 



p. 373. 

 "Statenland, Jan. 2, 1775." 

 Pis. 69, 70. Anas montana, Forst., Descr. Anim., p. 44 (1844: 

 Cape of Good Hope). 

 = Gasarca cana (Gm.) ; cf. Salvadori, Cat. B., xxvii., 

 p. 182. PI. 69 is a pencil sketch only. 

 PI. 71. Anas xanthorhyncha, Forst., Descr. Anim., p. 342 

 (1844: South Georgia). 

 = Nettion georgicum (Gm.) (cf. Salvadori, Cat. B., xxvii., 



p. 264); Nettium georgicum, Sharpe, Handl., i., p. 219. 

 [<£, Jan. 17, 1775.] 

 On this plate is founded Latham's description of the 

 " Georgia Duck " (Gen. Syn., iii., pt. 2, p. 478) " from the drawings 

 of Sir Joseph Banks." 



PI. 72. Anas xanthorhyncha, Forst., Descr. Anim., p. 45 (1844 : 

 Cape of Good Hope). 

 = Anas undulata, Dubois (cf. Salvadori, Cat. B., xxvii., 

 p. 212). 

 These two plates, named A. xanthorhyncha by Forster, repre- 

 sented two very different species. 



PI. 73. Anas pyrrhorhyncha, Forst., Descr. Anim., p. 45 (1844 : 

 Cape of Good Hope). 

 = Poecilonetta erythrorhyncha (Gm.) (cf Salvad., Cat. B., 

 xxvii., p. 285). 

 Although Latham (Gen. Syn., iii., pt. 2, p. 507) does not 

 state where he found the specimen of his "Crimson-billed 

 Duck," there can be no doubt that it was from Forster \s 

 Drawings, or from a specimen in Banks' collection, that it was 

 described. 



PI. 74. Anas malacorhynchus, Forst., Descr. Anim., p. 94 

 (1844: New Zealand). 

 = Hymenolsemus malacorhynchus (Gm.) (cf Salvad., Cat. 



B., xxvii., p. 455). 

 " Dusky Bay, New Zealand, April 3, 1773." " He-weeyo."
