I b ave h esita ted to add the h a b ita t “ Ambonia” to the present species, as I fear th a t th a t
lo cality has been erroneously assigned to th e specimen in th e P hiladelphia Museum, as

b u t th ey are doubtless similar to those o f th e o th er members o f th e genus Ceyx. The
figure in th e opposite p late is drawn from a v e ry fine specimen from Manilla, kin d ly lent
me b y Mr. Gould, an d I have tak en th e de scription and measurements from the same bird.
