Messrs. E. L. and E. L. C. Layard on 
black collar, and tben all the lower parts rich gamboge- 
yellow ; upper parts yellowish green; wing- and tail-feathers 
greenish brown, the former edged exteriorly with the colour 
of the back. Length 7" 6"', wing 3'' 10'", tail 3" 2'", tarse 13'", 
bill 12'". 
Female unknown. This may be the species indicated by 
M. Marie. 
Clytorhynchus pachycephaloides, D. G. Elliot. 
Described from New Caledonia (P. Z. S. 1870, p. 243), but 
omitted from M. Marie^s list published the same year. We 
have not seen it. 
36. Artamus melaleucus, Forst. 
Common generally; appears in the Lifu collection. E. L. L. 
procured an Artamus at Honailou which differs slightly from 
this species. It is large, the black of the throat does not 
apparently descend so low on the chest (this may be occa¬ 
sioned by the stuffing); and the back has a decided brownish 
tinge. 
Can this be 
Artamus arnouxi. Bp. ? 
which is given in Gray^s ^ Birds of Tropical Islands ^ as pro¬ 
bably from New Caledonia, but of which we have no descrip¬ 
tion*. 
37. Campephaga caledonica (Gm.). 
It is generally distributed, feeds on locusts and large insects. 
We have a bird in the Lifu collection which instantly strikes 
one as much darker than those killed on the main island. It 
may be different; we await more specimens of L. L.^s col¬ 
lecting. 
Gazzola typica. Bp. 
MM. Verreaux and Des Murs, in the ‘^Bevue,^ include 
this amongst other species not noted by M. Marie. We 
do not know itf. 
^ [This is an error of Mr. Gray. A supposed New-Caledonian species 
is named by Bonaparte (C. R. xxxviii. p. 538) Oeypterus herardiy and is con¬ 
cisely described as “ noire ! ” Of Artamus arnouxi (named, and described 
as ^^{entihrement gy'ise,’ at the same time) the locality is not given.—E dd.] 
t [Naturally enough ; it is peculiar to Celebes !—Edd.]
