Genus floromis, mihi. 



General structure of Tribura, but the rietus more or less armed ; 

 the tarse strongly scaled ; the wings more gradated, having the fifth

H. ? fuligiventer, mihi. — Aberrant ; probably a Tribura, having the 

 wing of that form, but the tail not worn or rigid, and hence perhaps 

 that character may not be permanent. Above dusky olive-brown, 

 diluted into greenish of a dusky cast below ; bill and feet dark.

Our singular genus 



Temnoris (olim Suthora), 



and which name, if objected to, may give place to Hemirhynchus , is 

 I think a Parian fonn, being much allied to the small long-tailed Tits. 

 It seems however to group well with our Heteromorpha and Conostoma 

 and Gould's Paradoxornis, and the vp^hole may perhaps fall into the 

 GlaucopiiKE. There are t\vo species of Suthora confounded by me 

 under the name of nipalensis ; I now erase that name, and substitute 

 ūtrifrons amd f ulvifroiis, thus : 



T. atrifrons, mihi. — General colour bright rūsty, palest on the 

 belly and vent, brightest on the wings ; falše wing black ; margins 

 of the prime alars albescent ; caudals and alars internally blackish, 

 and apertly so tovvards their tips ; head saturate slat}% margined late- 

 rally and in front by a darker zone, and passing into diluted slaty, 

 mixed with rūsty on the sides of the neck ; chin transversely barred 

 black ; cheeks albescent ; bill dusky, with a bluish base ; legs sordid 

 grey. Length, 4į inches ; bill, less i ; tail, 2į ; ■wing, \\į ; tarse, | ; 

 centrai toe and nail, \ ; hind, f. 



T. fulvifrons, mihi. — General hue of the preceding, but the head 

 and neck concolorous with the back ; the cheeks not whitened.
