well defined, these fire strictly representative forms. Those that are known are given below ; 

 and doubtless many more cases of representation will be discovered when the islands have been 

 more thoroughly explored.

Only one species is common to a Philippine island and to any one other non-Philippine 

 island — namely Xantholoema rosea, which is restricted to the islands of Negros and of Java. 

 X. hcemacephala, the common Luzon Barbet, which ranges all over India and is found in Sumatra 

 and the Malay peninsula, does not seem to occur in Negros, where X. rosea appears to represent 

 it, as it also does in Java. 



It is also a remarkable fact that the only Philippine representative of the highly characteristic 

 Indian family of the Pericrocotidw is the abnormal and only migratory member of the group, 

 P. cinereus.
