but Stoliczka found it in Thibet in summer, and also, though 

 rarely, in the Sutlej valley. 



262 bis. Lanius isabellinus, Hemprieh and Ehrenberg. 

 Walden, Ibis, 1867, p. 224, pi. v. f. 1. The White- winged 

 Brown Shrike. 



This addition to the Indian fauna is a link between the 

 Rufous-tailed and the true Shrikes. It has hitherto, in India, 

 only occurred in Sindh, but will most probably be found to 

 extend into the neighbouring parts of the Punjab. I append 

 a brief description. Head and rump rufous brown, the rest 

 of the upper plumage brown, with a slightly rufous tinge; 

 upper tail-coverts and tail bright rufous ; below, including the 

 under wing-coverts, creamy white; under tail-coverts, pui'e 

 white ; a pale fulvous supercilium, and a black eye-band, which 

 includes the eyes and ear-coverts ; a white alar bar on the 3rd 

 to 9th quills. Of about the size of L. arenarius. Wing 3'87, 

 tail 3-62, tarsus -87. 



Lanius tigrinus, Blyth, alluded to by me p. 407, stands now 

 as L. magnirostris, Lesson — L. strigatus, Eyton, and L. waldeni, 

 Swinhoe, being synonymous. L. schwaneri, from Borneo, is very 

 doubtfully distinct. 



366. Tephrodornis grisola. 



This bird is stated by Blyth to be identical with Hrjlo- 

 terpe philomela of Boie apud Cabanis, and to belong to the 

 genus Pachijcephala as understood by Wallace and Sclater. 

 Tephrodornis gularis, alluded to in the text, does not, it appears, 

 inhabit Malacca, where it is replaced by another species, T. 

 sordidus, Wallace. 



267. Hemipus picatus. 



I was wrong in confounding the species from Southern India 

 named as above with the Himalayan bird. This last will 

 now take its place as 



267 bis. Hemipus capitalis, M'Clelland. 



H. picatcolor, Hodgson. 



The Brown -backed Pied Shrike.
