320 Mr. Blyth's Remarks upon specimens of Mammalia and Birds 



Hodg., by Mr. Gray : vide J. A. S. B. xvi. 125, 128. — Siphia super- 

 ciliaris is decidedly congeneric with Muse, superciliaris , Jerdon, and 

 must therefore bear my subsequent name hyperythra rather than ru- 

 becula, which was afterwards applied by an unlucky oversight on my 

 part. 



P. 93. Hemipus piccecolor , Hodgson, is Muscicapa capitalis, M'Clel- 

 land and Horsfield, and is,*I think, distinct from Muse, picata, Sykes, 

 v. tyrannides, Tickell. — Some Darjeeling specimens of Tchitrea lately 

 received are referable to Teh. affinis, A. Hay. — Leucocerca pectoralis, 

 Jerdon, is distinct from L. fuscoventris (Franklin). — Chelidorhynx is 

 typical Rhipidura. — Cryptolopha ceylonensis will rank as Cr. cinereo- 

 capilla (Vieillot). 



P. 94. Proparus chrysotis. This specific name must have been a 

 slip of the pen for'Jeucotis or chrysopterus. 



P. 95. Siva nipalensis I now refer to my genus Alcippe. It is 

 nearly allied to Brachypteryx sepiaria, Horsfield, which I also refer to 

 Alcippe. 



P. 97. The Pericrocotus (unnamed) is Pr. Solaris, nobis, J. A. S. B. 

 xv. 310. — P. rubritinctus, nobis, mentioned in the Appendix, may be 

 cancelled, as I have never published P. roseus by this name ; Mr. Jer- 

 don having favoured me with his identification of the species with 

 Muscicapa rosea, Vieillot. — Campephaga lugubris, according to Mr. 

 Strickland (in epistold), is C. fimbriata (Temm.). 



P. 98. Dicrurus pyrrhops, Hodgson, v. longicaudatus, A. Hay, is 

 very distinct from the Malayan species which I refer to D. cineraceus, 

 Horsf. : vide J. A. S. B. xv. 279. 



P. 99. Tephrodornis indica is the Muscicapa pondiceriana, Gm., 

 which specific name claims the priority. Mr. Jerdon first ascertained 

 this. — T. sylvicola, Jerdon, is distinct from T. pelvica, Hodgson. 



P. 100. Lanius erythronotus, Jerdon, is my L. caniceps ; distinct 

 from the Himalayan species figured by this name in Gould's ' Cen- 

 tury.' — L. cristatus, Linn. As this bird is not crested, it must rank 

 as L. phcenicurus, Pallas. 



P. 101. There are three species of Psilorhinus in the Himalaya, all, 

 I suspect, distinct from Ps. sinensis:- vide J. A. S. B. xv. 27, 284. — 

 I also suspect that Cissa venatoria, Gray, is distinct from C. sine?isis : 

 in Bengal this is only known as a cage bird, whence M. Lesson's 

 name, bengalensis, is inapplicable. — Dendrocitta vagabunda : should 

 not this stand as D. rufa (Scop., Sw.) ? 



P. 102. Corvus macrorhynchos of the neighbourhood of the Straits 

 of Malacca is a distinct species from C. culminatus of India, which 

 however also extends its range to the Straits of Malacca. 



P. 103. Gracula religiosa. The Nepal species is Gr. intermedia, 

 A. Hay : vide J. A. S. B. xv. 32. — Maina cristelloides, Hodg., will 

 stand as Acridotheres griseus, Horsf. (nee mahrattensis , Sykes). — Pas- 

 tor (or Sturnia) pagodarum. Add as a synonym Turdus melanoce- 

 phalus, Vahl. 



P. 104. I consider Mr. Hodgson's Pastor caniceps to be Sturnia 

 malabarica (vera). It is very distinct from St. Blythii (Jerdon). 



P. 105. Euplectes striatus, nobis, is rightly assigned to Eu. flavi- 

 ceps (Sw.) ; and both must be referred as synonyms to Ploceus man-
