Todiramphus nigrocyaneus stictolaemus -- Blue-black Kingfisher. Alternate name on piece: Halcyon stictolaema [Spotted-throated kingfisher] Very finished drawing; at head of sheet: "Surely you are sufficient . . . [illegible] to put this on stone at once. It is a borrowed bird and may be called for at any moment." (Whose hand? Certainly not Gould's. Was Sharpe this closely involved in production schedules and direct supervision?) Artist's name(s): Gould, John; Hart, William Matthew.
