316 Lord Tweeddale on Birds from 



mens may be considered the type, is represented both in Su- 

 matra and Java by a race which it may perhaps be proper to 

 separate as a distinct species. Of this form two representa- 

 tives are contained in Mr. Buxton's collection. It is a smaller 

 bird than P. flammeus, and it diifers in the oranj^e edgings 

 of the outer webs of some of the secondaries uniting with the 

 orange-coloured mark lower down, as is to be found in P. 

 brevirostris. The female of this form appears to have sup- 

 plied the type of Lanius xanthogaster, Eaflles. 



112. Philentoma pyrrhopterum. 



Muscicapa j)yrrhoptera, Temm. PL Col. t. 596, '' Sumatra, 

 Borneo '^ (1836). 



Examples from Borneo and Malacca perfectly agree with 

 the one obtained in the Lampong district by Mr. Buxton. 



113. Hypothymis azurea. 



Muscicapa a::urea, Bodd. Tabl. PI. Enl. p. 41 (1783). 

 Muscicapa ccerulea, Gm., Raffles, t. c. p. 312, " Sumatra.^* 



114. MUSCIPETA AFFINIS. 



Tchitrea affims,k. Hay, J. A. S. B. 1846, p. 292, "Malacca.'' 

 Sumatran specimens similar to typical. 



115. Cyornis elegans. 



Muscicapa elegans, Temm. PI. Col. 596, f. 1, '^Sumatra" 

 (1836). 



The species obtained by Mr. Everett at Marup, in North 

 Borneo, and provisionally identified by me with C. elegans 

 (Ibis, 1872, p. 373), is not to be specifically distinguished 

 from the typical example in Mr. Buxton's collection. 



116. Leucocerca javanica. 



Muscicapa javanica, Sparrm. Mus. Carls, fasc. iii. t. 75, 

 ''Java" (1789); Raffles, t. c. p. 312, ''Sumatra." 

 Agrees with typical and Malaccan specimens. 



117. HiRUNDO JAVANICA. 



Hirundo javanica, Sparrm. Mus. Carls, fasc. iv. t. 100, 

 "Java" (1789). 



Neilgherry examples {H. domicola, Jerd.) cannot be sepa- 

 rated.
