736. Propyrrhula subbimachala (Hodgs.) ; Bp. et Schl. 

 Mon. Loxiens, pi. 13. 



737. Carpodacus rubicilla (Guldenst.) ; Bp. et. Schl, 

 Mon. Loxiens, pi. 26. 



738. Carpodacus erythrinus (Pall.) ; Bp. et Schl. Mon. 

 Loxiens. pi. 14. 



The breeding of this bird in the Botanical Gardens at Hel- 

 singfors is mentioned (Ibis, 1861, p. Ill) ; but its alleged "low 

 flute-like voice ^' rather puzzles me. It is a common cage-bn-d 

 in India, where its notes are as I have described them (and as 

 quoted by Dr. Jerdon) . The C. roseus of Dr. A. Leith Adams 

 (P. Z. S. 1859, p. 177) must surely refer to this species; and 

 his second species (no. 68) is probably Propasser rhodochlamys. 



739. Propasser rhodopeplus (Vigors) ; Bp. et Schl. Mon. 

 Loxiens, pi. 21. 



740. Propasser thura (Bp.) ; Moore, P. Z. S. 1855, Aves, 

 pis. 113, 114. 



P. frontalis, nobis (no. 744), is identical with this species. 



741. Propasser rhodochlamys (Brandt); Bp. et Schl. 

 Mon. Loxiens, pis. 24, 25. 



Dr. Cabanis notes it from Siberia. 



742. Propasser rhodochrous (Vigors) ; Bp. et. Schl. 

 Mon. Loxiens, pi. 28. 



745. Propasser murrayt, nobis, J. A. S. B. xxxii. p. 458. 

 There remains a female specimen in the Asiatic Society^s 



Museum at Calcutta, which I had considered to be that of P. 

 thura, and which indicates another species yet to be described 

 [cf. Ibis, 1865, p. 44). 



746. Procarduelis nipalensis (Hodgs.) ; Pijrrha saturata, 

 Bp. et Schl. Mon. Loxiens, pi. 29. 



A second species of Procarduelis is referred to by Dr. F. 

 Stoliczka as inhabiting the eastern parts of Ladakh (J. A. S. B. 

 1865, xxxiv. p. 111). {Cf. Ibis, 1866, p. 412.) 



747. Pyrrhospiza punicea, Hodgs. ; Bp. et Schl. Mon. 

 Loxiens, pis. 27, 28).
