Catalogue of the 
sericea of Gould to be the female ; but it is a 
totally distinct species, and not found in Tasmania. 
I however strongly suspect that there are still two 
species under this name; as the Sydney bird is 
larger, and has much more white in its plumage 
63. Melipliaga Australasiana. The sawyer honeysucker. 
The note of this bird, heard late.at night, re¬ 
sembles the sound of the file sharpening a saw. 
M. inornata , Gould, is the female.

66. Ptilotis flavigula . The yellow throat. Confined to 
Tasmania.

sucker. Very rare. Gould states the G. ocularis 
also to have come from Tasmania.
