_Phalacrocorax novaezealandiae var. major_ Forbes, Trans. N.Z. Inst.
XXIV, p. 189 (1892--no proper description).
Dr. Forbes only informed us that this shag was of greater dimensions than
_Ph. novaezealandiae_ (a very closely allied form of _Ph. carbo_). It would
be interesting to know more about it, and, especially, if this extinct form
was incapable of flight, like _Ph. harrisi_ of the Galápagos Islands.
Habitat: New Zealand.
