Rippon's specimen agrees with E. /. arcuata Hartert (op. cit.) and Sharpe 

 [Handl. v. p. 278). Both give the range of this bird as " Kashmir to Assam." It 

 is therefore new to Yunnan.

These Mongtse specimens are probably referable to the above race, although 

 the typical E. s. spodocephala is doubtless a winter visitor to Yunnan, as it is said 

 to be to the whole of China. Oustalet {Bull. Mus. Paris, 1896) includes it in his 

 list of birds obtained in this province by Prince Henry of Orleans.
