PINAROCICHLA. 399 
Genus PINAROCICHLA Sharpe, 1881. 
This genus contains a single species very closely allied to 
Otocompsa but different in having the feathers of the back and 
rump with rigid and spinous shafts. If the fingers are passed 
along the back from the tail towards the head, the prickly character 
of the feathers can easily be felt. 
The crest of Pinarocichla is shorter than it is in our Indian 
species of Otecompsa but not shorter than in the Siamese 
Otocompsa flaviventris johnsoni and very little shorter than in 
O. fl. minor.
