(1) Is this the same as Gould’s genus Neomorpha , mentioned in 
Zool. Trans. ? The heads of two species are figured in his Syn. of 
Australian Birds. Swainson considers it as the scansorial type, but 
it appears to bear a close resemblance to the Fregillnce. 
(2) The group named Calodera, by Gould, may be considered as 
a subgeneric form. The typical representative was first figured in 
the Zool. Illust., under the title of Ptilo. nuchalis. A further revision 
of this genus will probably shew the propriety of instituting subgene- 
ric groups.
