Gallus bankiva bankiva, Stuart Baker (part.), op. cit., p. iS. 



Java, Lombok. 



It is obviously impossible to accept Mr. Stuart Baker's nomen- 

 clature as he uses as a parent name one which is 25 years later in 

 date than his later subspecies. 



Accepting Mr. Baker's views on the distinctness of the Eastern 

 and Western races in regard to the paler hackles possessed by the 

 latter, and in view of the facts which we have here drawn atten- 

 tion to, we consider that the Western bird has no name. 



We therefore name it Gallus feyrugineus murght, subsp. no v. 



Type: Adult male (Zool. Survev of India, No. 18921) from 

 Chirala, Gya District, Bihar (Museum Collector)
