 Obta-iued in April at 5300 feet. 



256. Psarisomus DALHousiiE (Jameson). (944.) 



This handsome bird is very common in the parts of the 

 country suited to it. It especially aftects the " tounggya " 

 (hill cultivation) in well-wooded districts. I have not 

 obtained it below about 4000 feet^ and it was very plentiful 

 near one of ray camps at about 5300 feet. This was during 

 the breeding-season in April, when its shrill screams could 

 be heard all day. 



257. Gecinus OCCIPITALIS (Vigors). (950.) 



All the Woodpeckers mentioned below, except D. cubanisi, 

 seem to be fairly common.
