(Type of P. assimilis.) 



After carefully comparing the type of P. assimilis with Chinese 

 examples of P. rutilans, I am unable to see the smallest grounds for 

 their specific separation. It seems to me even doubtful whether 

 some mistake may not have occurred with regard to the locality of 

 the male specimen, which was purchased of Mr. Whitely, and was 

 not procured by Capt. Wardlaw Ramsay himself. It is quite possible 

 that a Chinese skin has got mixed up in the collection sold by 

 Mr. Whitely. The female specimen from the Karen Hills is 

 undoubtedly only P. cinnamomeus, agreeing with other specimens 

 from the Himalayas ; and therefore a Sparrow of the P. rutilans 

 type has to be rediscovered in Burmah.

This species will have to be united to P. cinnamomeus (vide 

 supra).
