Birds from British New Guinea.371 XXIX.-Diagnoses of Thirty-six new or little-known Birds from British New Guinea, By C. W. De Vis.Tue birds which I propose to describe are from the collections made under the leadership of Sir William Macgregor by Mr. A. Giulianetti, during his late journey across British New Guinea, from the Mambare River to the Vanapa River.The passages in the descriptions within inverted commas are transcripts, with here and there slight modifications, of Mr. Giulianetti's notes on the labels.An enumeration of all the species occurring in the general collection is reserved for an appendix to the Annual Report to the Queensland Parhament on British New Guinea for the present year*.
