738 Recently published Ornithological Works. [Ibis, 
well studied. The last-named bird varies, so that we may 
admit three subspecies; it is in the Watling paintings, and 
the name robustus supersedes mentalis , that name being used 
subspecifically. G. affinis is possibly a synonym [p. 131]. 
Paragraucalus lineatus is correct, as Gould could not, under 
the present rules, have changed the name to swainsonii. Two 
subspecies are recognized. The case is almost the same 
with Metagraucalus tenuirostris , which Ruppell renamed 
jardinii , but here there are three subspecies. Lalage is begun 
in this part, and on the first page Monarcha is concluded, a 
special point being that canescens of Salvadori is reduced to a 
subspecies of melanopsis . M. kursudi is altogether dropped. 
Riley on new Celebes Birds. 
[Five new genera of birds. Four new birds from Celebes. By J. H. 
Riley. Proc. Biol. Soc. Washington, vol. 34, 1921, pp. 51-58.] 
The five new genera are Compscenas for Zonophaps radiata 
(Q. & G.), Larnprura for Zonophaps rufigaster (G. & G.), 
Diopezus for Phlegoenas tristigmata Bp., Cranobrontes for 
Cranorrhinus leucocephalus (Vieill.), and Orodytes for 
Arachnothera or Stigmatops celebensis Meyer & Wigles., 
the last a bird of rather uncertain affinities. The four new 
forms comprise Scolopax celebensis , Lamprocorax montrosa, 
and new forms of Dendrobiastes and Myzomela —all from 
Celebes, collected by Mr. H. C. Raven. 
Rothschild on the Birds of Yunnan. 
[On a collection of Birds from West-Central and North-Western 
Yunnan. By Lord Rothschild, F.R.S., Ph.D. Nov. Zool. Tring, xxviii. 
1921, pp. 14-67.] 
In this paper Lord Rothschild enumerates and describes 
a collection of 279 species and subspecies of birds collected 
by Mr. George Forrest in the mountains of Yunnan. 
Mr. Forrest is a well-known botanical collector, and the 
birds were a parergon to his main task. Colonel Stephenson 
Clarke, for whom the collection was made, has most 
generously presented half the bird-skins, including the types 
of the new forms, to the British Museum, and the other
