Another of Isaac Smith's guesses wide of the mark, as the bird figured is the Booby Gannet, which was secured at New Caledonia September 16, 1774. Forster named this Pelecamts plotiis (Ed. Licht., p. 278) and Forstor's name is used for the Coral Sea subspecies ranging through the Great Barrier Keef. 47.—"A Crested Shag of New ; ^Tho Spotted Shag (Sticto- carbo pimciatus Sparrmann). , No. 103. 48.—"A Shag New Zealand and Staten ; The Jlagellan Shag (Hypoleuciis magellanicus Gmelin). , No. 105. ;Small Albatross seen in Lat. 65*."

Had this painting been available many years ago there might have been no con- fusion as it is so unmistakable. The species was met with from "December 5, 1772—January 13, 1773" in the "An- tarctic Ocean," and through misunder- standing Gniclin's name "fuliginosa" given to Forster's bird applied to a uniform sooty bird met with in wanner •waters. When the icy south was later investigated this Antarctic form was again met with and regarded as a novelty. 50.—"A Pinguin of New ; The Antarctic Penguin (Pi/- goscelis antarctica Forster). , No. 82.
