 Natuurl. Gesch. en Phys., II, 1835, p. 331 (type, N. pyrrhoptera "Boie," a nomen 

 inula, a here). The name Napothera does not occur in "Ms, 1835," as often quoted. 



c It is possible that Napothera may be available for the group we now know as 

 Turdinulus, since Myiofhera epilepidota (from "les ties de Java et de Sumatra") 

 appears to belong to this group. I have a memorandum to the effect that this species 

 is discussed in the Bulletin of the Liverpool Museum, 1, p. 83, but can not verify the 

 reference al present.
