This new family is adopted, at the suggestion of Professor 

 Newton, to include some peculiar groups of Himalayan birds 

 whose position has usually been among the Timaliidse or the 

 Paridae, but which are now found to be allied to our Bearded 

 Eeedling. The supposed affinity of this bird for the Tits has 

 been long known to be erroneous, and the family Panuridae was 

 formed for its reception (YarreU's British Birds, 4th edit. p. 512). 

 The genera having hitherto been widely scattered in systematic 

 works, are referred to by the numbers of Mr. G. E. Gray's 

 Hand List.
