It). Parus atriceps Horsf. 



Two evidently young birds from elevations of 5000 feet have the mantle 

 washed with yellowish green, but a fine series of adnlt birds since received from 

 Mr. Everett shows that this is not a peculiarity of the Lonibok birds, but merely 

 a sign of nonage. See Gadow, Cat. B. Brit. Mas. VIII. p. 17. (P. cinercus
