determine how much local variation there is. It will be noted that North 
includes Victoria in the range of this species. I omitted it and ¥. E. Howe 
has added it again. I note, however, that Keartland records it as occurring 
there on one occasion. I make this comment as I described a strange Owl 
from Victoria as Tyto longimembris domhminiy which has since proved to be 
a peculiar phase of Tyto novoehollandioe, as already pointed out. 
As not standing alone in thus confusing these two species, I might record 
the existence in the British Museum collection of a specimen labelled “ Strix 
novcBhollandioR N(ew) C(aledonia),” which is the present species.
