Zusammenfassung

Bolborhynchus lineola lineola (CaSsin),In
August, 1942, we observedthem in flocksin the taller trees, eating what we took to
be berries.
They seemed unafraid of man for when we shot into the flock,
the remaining birds circled two or three times and again alighted to resume their feeding activity.
The ovary of each of the two adult females collected in August was small. The
third female is more bluishgreen ventrally and presumably is a young of the year.
