Mr. Thomas Carter on some 
S. maculata. It would be difficult to distinguish between the 
two species by merely reading his description of S. balstoni 
and that of Mr. A. J. Norths S. maculata. 
28. Acantjiiza uropygialis Gould. 
Mr. Shortridge states : “ The Chestnut-rumped Tit is the 
only species that occurs so far north as the Gascoyne River, 
where, however, it is rare.” I found it not uncommon in 
the scrub inland from Point Cloates, two hundred miles 
further north ( f Emu/ vol. iii. p. 37). 
29. Rhipidura tricolor (Vieill.). 
The Black-and-White Fantail does occur at Albany, but 
it is very seldom seen there. Mr. Shortridge says it “ does 
not occur.” 
30. Smicrornis brevirostris Gould. 
Mr. Shortridge says that the Short-tailed Tree-Tit occurs 
as far south as Wagin. It is not uncommon round Broome 
Hill, forty-four miles further south. 
31. Petrceca campbelli Sharpe. 
Both Petroeca campbelli and P. goodenovii are found in 
the Broome Hill district. P. goodenovii occurs regularly in 
the winter months right down to the beach from Carnarvon 
to the N.W. Cape. 
32. Halcyon sanctus Yig. & Ilorsf. 
Mr. Shortridge says that “the Sacred Kingfisher is said 
to occur as far north as Houtmans Abrolhos.” I have shot 
specimens at Point Cloates, and it occurs all through West 
Australia within a certain radius of the coast (see f Emu/ 
vol. ii. p. 50). 
33. Dacelo cervina Gould. 
Mr. Shortridge says “ the Fawn-breasted Kingfisher was 
plentiful on the Gascoyne River and extended as far north 
as Murchison.” The Gascoyne River is from a hundred and 
fifty to two hundred miles to the north of the Murchison 
River, running roughly parallel to it. 
34. Melopsittacus undulatus Shaw. 
Mr. Shortridge states that “the Warbling Grass-Parakeet
