60 Mr. F. Nicholson on Birds 



42. Pycnonotus simplex (Less. Rev. Zool. 1839, p. 107). 

 No. 337, $. Tarratas, S. Sumatra. Yellowish-red irides ; 



bill dirty greenish black; legs and feet dirty flesh-colour. 



This bird, Mr. Sharpe informs me, is the species named 

 P. brunneus by Mr. Blyth (J. A. S.Bcng. xiv. p. 568), and 

 Microtarsus oUvaceus by Mr. Moore (Cat. B.E.I. Co. Mus. i. 

 p. 249); but he considers it to be the true P. simplex of Lesson. 



43. Irena crinigera, Sharpe, Cat. B. iii. p. 267. 

 Ire7m cyanea, Salvad. t. cit. p. 207 (nee Begbie). 



No. 307, $ . Gounong Trang. Irides dark red ; legs 

 and feet black. 



No. 320, ? . Penang goenyan. Dark -red irides. 



No. 326 a, $ . Penang goenyan. Irides light red. 



Count Salvadori does not allow this species of Mr. Sharpens; 

 but I find the character of the tail-coverts quite pronounced 

 in the male bird above noted, and I think it is easily distin- 

 guishable, as a race at least, 



44. CiTTOciNCLA MACRURA (Gm.); Twccdd. ^. ci/. p. 309; 

 Salvad. /. cit. p. 236.

 pong. Irides dark brown; bill black; legs sickly white,

The female differs from the male in having the whole back 

 chestnut like the head, not the " upper back '' as stated by 

 Temminck. There is no difference in the sexes as regards 

 the colour of the throat (c/. Elwes, /. c.) .
