Mr. Ogilvie-Grantlias also furnished me with the following 

 remarks upon two of the recently discovered species : — 



(1) Arboricola ricketti. 



Arboricola ricketti Grant, Bull. B. O. C. viii. p. xlviii 

 (1899). 



Thanks to the generosity of Mr. C. B. Rickett, there is now 

 a series of this fine species in the National Collection. All of 

 the examples have the white forehead and superciliary stripe 

 well developed, and in this respect differ from the nearly 

 allied A. gingica Temm., the type of which is preserved 

 in the Leyden Museum. 



Hab. Foh-kien, China. 



(2) Arboricola henrici. 



Arboricola henrici Oustalet, Bull. Mus. Paris, ii. p. 317 

 (1896); id. Arch. Mus. Paris, (4) i. pi. ix. (1899). 



This species appears to he closely allied to A. brunneipectus
