This species appears not to have lieeu noticed ou Hainan before. It is doubtless 

 only a l)ird of passage or winter visitor on Hainan. 



158. Caprimulgus macrurus ambiguus Hart.

These specimens belong distinctly to the intermediate form which I named 

 ambiguus. 



159. Caprimulgus indicus jotaka Temm. & Schleg. 



Capri inul gus jntaka Grant, P. Z, S. I'JOO. p. 480. 



Whitehead obtained two specimens on the Five-Finger Mountains. See 

 Mr. Ogilvie-Grant's remarks (/.c). 



160. Apus subfurcatus (BIyth). 



Cypnehis stib/urcaius Grant, P. Z. S. 1900. p. 486. 

 Recorded by Swinhoe and Harthiub only. 



101. Apus pacificus (Lath.). 



Cyp'idus pacifiem Grant, P. Z. S. 19U0. p. 486. 

 Only recorded by Swinhoe.

 Tuclioriiis iiifiimata Grant, /'. Z. S. 19(10. p. 486. 



Swinhoe obtained several specimens on Hainan, and the Tring Mnsenm pos- 

 sesses one of liis types. Neither Whiteliead nor Katsumata collected this Swift, 

 which is regrettable, as it is by no means certain that it is quite identical with 

 North Indian infumatiis. If it is, as it might turn out to be, a darker race, its 

 name would have to be T. iiifamatus tinus. 



163. Serilophus lunatus poliouotus Rothsch. 



Serihiphus luinitiis poliouotus Rotb.schild, Dull. B. (J. Club xiv. p. 7 (1903— Hainan) ; Hartert, 

 Genera Avium 1. p. 5. 



11 (?(?, 3 ? ? Mt. Wuchi, March 1903 (No. 179). 



This is one of the most beautiful discoveries of Mr. Katsumata. S. I. polionotus 

 agrees with 6'. /. liinatu.i (Gould) and S. I. rothxchiUH Hart. & Butl. in the shape 

 of the primaries, which are shar[)ly pointed at the tips. It diflers in the colour of 

 the sides of the face, which are brownish grey, while the inner webs of the inner 

 secondaries are slaty grey with pale cinnamon tips.
