Having examined the type of P. coecus in the Macleay Museum, 
I have to support Klunzinger's opinion that that species is synony- 
mous with P. tetradactylus. 
A large specimen is preserved from Fremantle.

A comparison of the type of N copempheris ramsayi with 
Sieindachner’s figure of Lcptobvama mulleri leaves no doubt as to the 
identity of the two species. 
Mr. Ogilby has examined several specimens from Moreton 
Bay and informs me that he considers N. pectoralis, may be 
synonymous with N . ramsayi. I have compared the two type 
specimens and find only a few differences between them which are 
probably not specific. Mr. Ogilby will give details in his paper in 
the memoirs of the Queensland Museum.
