Formosa; and his G. ruficeps, from the same island, is nearly 

 allied to G. albogularis (Gould, B. As. pt. xvi.). 



410. Garrulax ruficollis. 



Mr. Hodgson figures the egg of a fine green colour. 



414. Garrulax ocellatus. 



Surely a Truchalopterum rather than a Garrulax. 



415. Trochalopterum erythrocephalum. 



Mr. Hodgson figures a green egg, spotted much like that of 

 Turdus musicus, as that of the present species. 



417. Trochalopterum subunicolor. 



The eggs are green according to Mr. Hodgson. 



422. Trochalopterum phcexiceum. 



Mr. Hodgson figures a beautiful compact nest, bound round 

 with long lanceolate leaves. 



423 and 424. Trochalopterum cachinnans and T. jer- 



DOXI. 



In the development of the loral plumes these two species from 

 Southern India resemble the Sumatran Garrulax mitratus. 



427. ACTINODURA EGERTONI. 



Mr. Hodgson figures the nest of this bird like that of an 

 English Redbreast, with pinkish-white eggs. Crocias guttatus, 

 Temm. (PI. Col. 592), of Sumatra and Java, is a species not 

 distantly allied to this. 



428. ACTINODURA NIPALENSIS. 



One of Mr. Hodgson's drawings represents a white egg with 

 ferruginous spots, disposed much as in that of Merula vulgaris. 

 This bird is the type of his genus Hemipterum. 



429. SiBIA CAPISTRATA. 



Mr. Hodgson figures a cup-shaped nest fixed in a branched 

 twig. 



432. Malacocercus terricolor. 



This species is undoubtedly the Turdus canorus of Linnjeus, 

 and the Merula hengalensis of Brisson, founded on Edwards's 

 badly coloured figure (Nat. Hist. B. pi. 184).
