et secundi pogoniis externis nigricantibus, non fasciatis ; 
subcaudalibus plumbeo-nigricantibus; rostro flavido, basi 
subrubente; pedibus pallidis. Long. tot. circa 14", rostri 
1^", alee 6", tarsi 2". 
Hab. Viti-levu. 
One specimen. There are faint traces of white marginal lines 
on the dark side-feathers. A typical Ballina, to be distin¬ 
guished at first sight from all similar species by the extraordinary 
colours of the wing-feathers. 
2. ClTCULUS INFUSCATUS. 
Unicolor, fuscus, nitore nonnullo metallico, subtus parum pallidior, 
subcinerascens; flexura alse alba; remigibus dimidio basali 
pogonii interni macula circumscripta alba notatis; cauda 
unicolore nigricante; maxilla fusca, mandibula pallida; 
pedibus pallidis; iride flava. Long. tot. circa 9|", rostri 
7'", alse 4J", caudse 4" 3"', tarsi 10"'. 
Hab. Viti-levu. 
One specimen. Belongs to the subgenus Cacomantis, and is 
certainly not the same as Cuculus simus of Peale, which latter 
bird Schlegel very erroneously identifies with C. cineraceus, 
Vigors. 
3. Pachycephala gr^ffii. 
Supra olivaceo-virescens, subtus intense vitellino-flava; pileo 
nitide nigro, postice flavo limbato ; lineola inter nares et 
oculos flava; subalaribus fiavis; fascia alari parum di- 
stincta tectricum majorum apicibus formata flava; remi¬ 
gibus nigris, extus olivaceo marginatis; cauda nigricante; 
rostro nigro; pedibus plumbeis. Long. tot. 6|", rostri 7 ^ in , 
alse 3" 1"', caudse 2" 5"', tarsi 8§ m . 
Hab. Viti-levu. 
One specimen. A typical species, easily to be distinguished 
from seven or eight nearly allied birds by the dark gamboge- 
yellow of the chin, &c. 
4. Pachycephala (?) optata. 
Supra obsolete olivaceo-brunnea, subtus cinnamomeo-rufa; sub¬ 
alaribus et sudcaudalibus rufis; rostro nigro-plumbeo; 
pedibus plumbeis. Long. tot. circa 6" 2'", rostri 6'", alse
