Excerpt from The Emu, 1914-15, Vol. 14: Quarterly Magazine to Popularize the Study, and Protection of Native Birds
MY purpose in entering on an examination _oi the Bell Magpie (strepera) was to endeavour to find evidence that would settle the vexed question as to whether that bird was more closely related to Corvus or to Gymnorhina and (fractious. The work was carried out in the laboratories Of the Biology School, University Of Melbourne, under the personal supervision Of acting-professor T. S. Hall, to Whom I am indebted for many valuable suggestions and much helpful advice and direction. I am also indebted to Mr. J. A. Kershaw, Curator National Museum, Melbourne, for the loan Of specimens and literature.

Excerpt from The Emu, 1914-15, Vol. 14: Quarterly Magazine to Popularize the Study, and Protection of Native Birds
Mathews, in his Reference-list, 1912, again included Strepera in the Corm'dw. He further suppressed the genus Gymnorhina. And placed the birds now included in that genus in the Older genus Cracticus; Cracticus was left in the Laniidae. It was in the hope Of settling whether Strepera was related to Corvus or to Gyrn norkina that this work was undertaken. The results Show that Strepera, Gymnorhina, and Cracticus are closely related, and form a natural group, probably as much entitled to family rank as many of the so - called families of the Oscines section Of the Passeriformes. All writers admit the great difficulty Of classifying the Oscines, for more than half Of the species Of birds are included in that group. Parker exclaimed, One hundred classifiers, one hundred so-called systems!
