594 ON THE OENITHOLOGT OF THE PHILIPPINES. [1878. 



r.Z.S.1878, 47. QuiPOPHAGA ^NEA (141). 



[Dumaguete, d 2 , August.] 



48. I.\NTH(ENAS GRISEIGULAKIS (145). 



[Valencia, d , August : iris orange ; orbital region and basal half of bill dark crimson ; apical 

 half of bill pale yellow ; feet dull carmine ; nails yellowish grey.] 



49. Maceoptgia eurtcerca, sp. n. (146, partim). 



[Valencia, 6 , August : iris yellow, with outer ring crimson ; orbital region aud base of bill 

 crimson ; bill light brown ; feet carmine.] 



Mr. Everett sends a single example, which agrees in every respect with the example obtained 

 in Negros by Dr. B. Meyer, and described by me (Tr. Z. S. ix. p. 218. no. 146*) when writing on 

 If. tenuirostris. A recomparison made with Luzon examples leaves no doubt that the Negros 

 bird is specifically distinct. 



50. TURTUK DUSSUMIEEI (147). 



[Valencia, 6 , August. Dumaguete, 6 , August.] 



51. Chalcophaps indica (150). 

 [Valencia, d , August.]

 [Valencia, c? , August.] 



New to Negros. The Luzon (Manilla) bird (Tr. Z. S. ix. p. 231. no. 175 J) has to be com- 

 pared ; for it is doubtful whether it does not rather belorig to this species than to R. fasciata. 



54. Htpot^nidia torquata (177). 



[Valencia, 2 , August.] 

 New to Negros. 



55. LiMOSA ^gocephala.
