fairly large. The largest are, however, always placed along 

 the sides of the pad. As in the former two species, the 

 posterior ones are directed forwards, while the anterior ones 

 are directed downwards. The whole pad measures about 10 

 mm. in length and oval in shape.

Cyanops dayisoni Hume. 



In this species the number of the tubercles seems to be 

 variable, and I ha ve counted from 14 to 18 in different spe- 

 cimens, though the whole pad is of the same length viz. 9 

 mm. In their shape and position they resemble those found 

 in the other kind of Barbets. 



Mesobucco tluvaugli cyaiiotis Blyth. 



In this species the tubercles are rather numerous and 

 of unequal size, the two placed furthest downwards being 

 the largest and also possessing a very sharp ridge at their 

 anterior extremity. 



Xantliolaema haematocephala P. L. S. Mull. 



A young, though almost fullgrown specimen of this 

 Barbet has the metatarsal pads very prominent. The tu- 

 bercles are placed in oval rows, the largest tubercles on the 

 sides and the smallest inwards of these. As a rule among
