The Celebes birds resemble some I have from Sumbawa, in the grey of the throat being not so sharply defined as it is in Philippine and Bornean birds. The amount of white on the rump in the former also appears more restricted than in the latter. 60. GRAUCALUS LEUCOPYGIUS, Bp.

I am inclined to think that the plumage of the young male is very nearly identical with that of the adult female In c, which is marked « sex. incert." on the label, the under surface shows evident signs of turning grey, and in e, marked «3, Menado the bird is evidently immature from the amount of ochraceous edging to the wing-feathers. |
