THE BIRDS OF AUSTRALIA. 
1899. It is closely allied to the female of T, castanota, but differs in its large 
size. The forehead is “ grey, without white tips to the frontal feathers, and with 
the superciliaries and sides of the face not conspicuously marked with white ; 
the feathers of the lower neck and breast with a decided wash of oily greyish 
green, and with slightly indicated bars of dull greyish, without white centres as 
in T. castanonota.^' 
The nest and eggs are undescribed, and nothing is known of its life-history. 
I am indebted to the Hon. Walter Rothschild for permission to figure and describe 
this species.
