336. MicROHiERAX EUTOLMUs Hoclgs. (1267.) 



337. Crocopus phcenicopterus (Lath.). (1271.) 



The Common Green Pigeon of the Shan States, and the 

 only one I have met with there in any large numbers. 



338. Treron nepalensis (Hodgs.). (1281.) 



339. Sphenocercus sphenurus (Vig.). (1283.) 



340. Carpophaga aenea (Linn.). (1284.)

341. DucuLA GRisEiCAPiLLA Wald. (1287.) 



Fairly common on the Loi Mai range at over 5000 feet 

 in March and April. In the ' Fauna of British India ' this 

 bird is entered as of the same dimensions as D. insignis. The 

 specimens that I collected were much smaller. The dimensions 

 of one of them were: length 17 inches; tail 6 inches; 

 wing 9 inches; tarsus 1*2 inch; bill from gape 1*3 inch. 



342. Chalcophaps indica (Linn,). (1291.) 



343. Columba intermedia Strickl. (1292.) 



344. Dendrotreron hodgsoni (Vig.). (1297.) 

 Common on the west slopes of Loi Mai at above 5000 feet 



in the end of March and the beginning of April. I only 

 took seven specimens with me to England, but that does not 

 give any idea of the numbers to be found, as my skinners 

 had more than they could do at the time, and big birds 

 were generally handed over to my followers to be eaten. 

 Irides light yellow.

346. Turtur orientalis (Lath.). (1304.)
