Polytelcs alexandre^, sp. n., obtained on Mr. J. M. Stuart’s expedition across 
Australia, much resembles P. barrahandi, but has a blue crown, and the lower 
parts of the cheeks rose-pink instead of yellow. J. Gould, Ann. & Mag. N. H. 
3 ser. xiii. pp. 248, 249. (From P. Z. S. 1863, p. 232.) 
Cyclopsitta hlythi is a new species from Mysol, similar to C. desmaresti from 
New Guinea, but wanting the blue cheek-spot. From the intermediate 
station of Salawatty, there is a specimen in the British Museum possessing 
this character in a slight degree. A. R. Wallace, P. Z. S. 1864, p. 284. 
Melopsittacus undiilatuSy its breeding at large in the Tyrol. Althammer, 
Rev. Zool. 1864, pp. 366, 367. 
Am macao (?), its longevity in confinement (64 or 66 years). II. Aucapi- 
taine, Rev. Zool. 1864, pp. 409-411. 
Myiops catharina identical with Psittacula lineola. P. L. Sclater, P. Z. S. 
1864, pp. 177, 178.. 
Conurus rhodogaster is a new species, first brought to Europe from Brazil by 
Natterer. It is allied to C. hpidm, but dilTers from that and others of the 
group by its scarlet belly. P. L. Sclater, P. Z. S. 1864, p. 298, pi. xxiv. 
Cofiurus ocularis is described as a new species from the isthmus of Panama, 
it has been confounded by Mr'. Lawrence with both C. pertinax and C. chry- 
sogenySf from which it can be distinguished by its entirely green crown and 
small subocular spot. P. L. Sclater and O. Salvin, P. Z. S. 1864, pp. 367, 368. 
Protogerys chrysoscma is a new species, first brought to Europe from Brazil 
by Natterer. It is allied to P. notatuSy but is of a brighter and yellower green 
colour, and has yellow instead of orange wing-coverts, a larger gular spot, and 
a bluer crown of the head. P. L. Sclater, P. Z. S. 1864, p. 298. 
Chrysotis JimcJii is a new species, in the British Museum, where it was recog- 
nized by Mr. Finsch as distinct from C. viridigenalis (from Panama), to which 
it is nearly allied. Bnt it is larger than that species and has the feathers of 
the under parts more distinctly bordered with black. P. L. Sclater, P. Z. S. 
1864, p. 298. 
Chrysotis viridigenalis (from Panama) may ultimately be found to belong 
to a distinct species, and perhaps entitled to the MS. name glaueiccps of Ilart- 
laub, given in Mr. Gray’s ‘ List of Psittacidce ’ (p. 82). P. L. Sclater and 
O. Salvin, P. Z. S. l|l64, p. 368. 
Trichoglossid^e. 
Lorius speciosus, from the islands in Geelvink Bay, New Guinea, is described 
as a new species. Said to be very like L. cyafiaucheti, but somewhat larger, and 
wanting the red band which in that species divides the blue nape from the 
black crown. The blue also forms two ^ horns ’ running down the sides of 
the neck, while in X. cyanauehen the throat is entirely blue from shoulder to 
shoulder. There is, besides, in L. speciosus a red band, and below it a blue one 
across the lower part of the upper-neck, of which there is no trace in the 
other species. G. von Rosenberg, J. f. O. 1864, p. 114. 
Chalcopsitta leucopygialis, from Dorey, New Guinea, is described as a new 
species. G. von Rosenberg, J. f. O. 1864, p. 113. 
Charmosyna pectoralis, from Dorey, New Guinea, is described as a new 
species. G. von Rosenberg, J. f. 0. 1864, p. 112.
