Hah. India, Ceylon, Andamans, Indo-Burmese Countries, Cochin-

Obs. 1st. The South Indian and Ceylon bird (C. syhatica, Tick.) 

 has smaller dimensions. 



2nd. The Philippine bird (C. ehalybura, Bp.) has the grey colour 

 of the hind neck and upper mantle lighter and more sharply defined 

 from the metallic-green back ; the tail somewhat greener, with less 

 bluish tinge. 



3rd. The Palawan bird (C. cenea palawanensis, Bias.) has the tail 

 darker and with a bluer tinge on the upper surface ; in fact it is 

 intermediate between Bornean specimens of 0. cenea, which it re- 

 sembles in the bluer tail, and the Philippine ones, with which it agrees 

 in having the grey hind neck better defined from the metallic back. 



4th. The Sulu bird is typical C. cenea, and not like the Philippine
