Gexus Scofocichla. 



Type: The only species of the genus. 



Bill slender, narrow, nasal aperture linear, rictal bristles 

 extremely short , tail graduated , nearly as long as the wing, 

 tarsi and toes Tery long and stout, the first less than 

 half the tail in length , crown darker than the back , the 

 rusty fulvous sides of the head reaching above the eye, 

 thus forming a broad eyebrow of that color. It difiers from 

 DrymiKataphus . which it otherwise much resembles, by the 

 tail being more than twice the length of the tarsus , and 

 from Pellorneum , under which it is ranged by Oates , by 

 the dark cap and the absolute want of the dark shaft- 

 stripes on the lower surface.
