Crocopsis bimaculatus tenggerensis subsp. nov. 
Very similar to Crocopsis bimaculatus (Horsfield) from 
West Java, but the yellow of the earcoverts much less 
conspicuous, the feathers being dark brown, only very 
narrowly margined with yellow. The type-specimens are 
two birds collected by Mr. Jacobson at Nongkodjadjar, 
Mount Tengger, at an elevation of 1200 m. 
N°. 797, Q, 12 January. 
— 798, o', 12 January. 
The throat and fore-neck in both birds are very dark 
brown, darker and less mottled than in specimens from 
West Java. In a specimen from Wonosalem, residence Soera- 
baja, Kast Java, collected at an elevation of about 500 m. 
and presented in 1896 by the late Vorderman to our col- 
lection, are the fore-neck and throat of the same coloration 
and mottling as in specimens from western Java, the 
earcoverts are however much less yellow and in this 
feature the bird resembles the two specimens from Mount 
Tengger. 
Mr. Jacobson collected also a nest with one egg of this 
form. The nest is composed of tendrils, inside lined with
