摘要:

SUMMARYSeton, D. H. C. 1973. Observations on breeding of the Great-billed Heron in northern Queensland. Emu 73: 9–11.Three breeding territories were located, in which up to seven nests were found. Any of the nests in a territory may be used from one year to the next, and one has been used recently, twenty years after being found. Two eggs seem to be the usual clutch, although probably only one young is reared. In the Burdekin district laying may begin about September and sometimes birds will lay as late as January. Comment is made on the unusual call.

摘要:

SUMMARYCrome, F. H. J. 1973. The relationship of the Helmeted and Yellow-tufted Honeyeaters. Emu 73: 12–18. The relationship betweenMeliphaga cassidixandM. melanopssubspecies are discussed on the basis of measurements of museum skins and of live individuals. The four separable populations—M. meltoni, M. melanops, M. gippslandicaandcassidix—form a cline shaped like a wishbone.Cassidixwas probably derived frommeltoni-like forms viamelanopsandgippslandica.Anomalous morphological features in several old skins ofcassidixare described and interpreted as genetic peculiarities of the kind found in small populations.M. cassidixshould be treated as a race ofM. melanopson the grounds that it is at the end of one arm of the wishbone and is linked tomelanopsby a discrete intermediate form,gippslandica.
