pink, and orange ; bare skin on face bright sulphur-yeUovv ; 

 feet dusky brown, soles of feet olive-yellow. 



239. Harpactes ardens (Temm.). (Grant, Ibis, 1896, 

 p. 123; 1897, p. 245.) 



This Trogon apparently occurs only in the most eastern 

 islands of the Philippines, being found from the extreme 

 north of Luzon to Basilan. 



At Cape Engano it was fairly common in the thick forests ; 

 it is not rare in Samar and Leite. 



Iris dark brown ; orbital skin deep French blue ; base of 

 bill light green fading into pale yellow, with the tip bright 

 king's yellow ; feet French blue, nails and part of the toes 

 yellowish brown. 



240. Iyngipicus validirostris Blyth. (Grant, Ibis, 1895, 

 p. 114; 1896, pp. 123, 471.) 



Iyngipicus maculatus. (Grant (nee Scop.), Ibis, 1891-, 

 p. 520.) 



Fairly common in Luzon, especially in the mountainous 

 districts, where it is to be met with as high as 7500 feet. 

 This species, like the rest of the genus, is more common on 

 the edges of the forest and in sparsely wooded country, 

 especially if a number of dead trees are left standing. We 

 met with /. validirostris in Catanduanes and in the moun- 

 tains of Mindoro up to 5000 feet. 



Iris dark brown ; upper mandible and half of lower black, 

 basal half of lower mandible greenish yellow ; feet dull 

 olive-green. 



241. Iyngipicus maculatus (Scop.). (Grant, Ibis, 1895, 

 p. 115; 1896, p. 557.) 



Rather scarce at the base of Canloon volcano, Negros, 

 only one male and three females being obtained. 



Iris brown ; upper mandible and half of lower slaty black, 

 the basal half of the lower dull white ; feet olive-green. 



242. Iyngipicus leytensis Steere. (Giant, Ibis, 1897, 

 p. 245.) 



Fairly common in Samar and Leite.
