 This locality must be added to those given by me (/. c).

An example of a female or of a young male Graucalus, but unfortunately without a label, 

 formed part of Mr. Everett's collection. It is not to be distinguished from Malaccan individuals 

 collected by the late Mr. Maingay, and noted by him as being females, excepting that the wing 

 is slightly shorter and the secondaries are not so broadly margined with white. It agrees 

 completely with Dr. Hartlaub's diagnosis (/. c.) of G. concretus. Dr. Hartlaub {torn, cit.) 

 described two distinct species from Borneo : the one he referred to G. fasciata, Vieill., a title 

 given to Daubenton's 629th plate, and within whose range he includes Sumatra; on the other ibis, 1872, 

 he bestowed the above title, restricting its range to Borneo. Without questioning the fact that P" ^''^' 

 two distinct species of fasciated Cuckoo-Shrikes may inhabit Borneo, only one is known in the 

 Malay peninsula, which we may by analogy infer to be the same as the Sumatran ; and this 

 species is certainly not Coracina fasciata, Vieillot. Indeed the Malaccan Graucalus has never 

 had a distinctive title bestowed upon it, it having been confounded with the bird figured by 

 Daubenton, pi. 629, a Philippine species and totally distinct. I adopt, therefore, for the Bornean 

 and Malaccan Graucalus, Dr. Hartlaub's title. 



Pericrocotus aedens, Boie; Bp. Consp. Av. i. p. 357, " Sumatra" (1850). 



" Marup, d , iris brown, July, pairing." 



It is with some doubt that I identify the example sent with P. ardens, Boie ; for the Indo- 

 Malayan members of the genus have never been brought together and satisfactorily identified. 

 This Marup bird agrees in all respects with Sumatran and Malaccan individuals. In colouring 

 it closely resembles P. sjjeciosus (Lath.), of which if is nothing but a miniature form. Wing 3-18 

 inches, tail 3-37. Muscicapa miniata, Temm. PI. Col. 156. fig. 1, " Java," if not the same species, 

 may be the Javan representative form. The bird represented (/. c. fig. 2) must be another species. 



f Pericrocotus minutus, Strickl. Contrib. Orn. 1849, p. 94. no. 22, s , pi. — , "Borneo." 



" Maru]3, ? , iris brown, July, not breeding." 



Streak over the eye but not extending beyond, cheeks, forehead, chin, throat, all the under 

 surface of the body, under shoulder-coverts, and underside of the wing-band deep golden. Sides 

 of the head pale ash. Head and back slate-grey ; tips of the rump-feathers orange-red. L^pper 

 tail-coverts bright orange-red. Alar bar above orauge-yeUow. Middle pair of rectrices brown, 

 lateral orange-red. Wing 2-80 inches, tail 2-95. 



The style of plumage of this example is certainly never met with in P. peregrimcs, which it 

 barely exceeds in dimensions; and with little doubt I refer it to Mr. Strickland's species, which. Ibis, 1872, 

 although closely resembling the preceding species, P. ardens, apud nos, is described by him as P-3'3. 

 not exceeding P. jjerecjrinus in size. P. icjneus, Blyth, J. A. S. B. 1846, p. 309, may possibly be
