The present species is structurally different enough from Hirundo 
rustica Linnaeus, by reason of its broad bill, very short, slightly 
forked tail, to necessitate its generic segregation, as already claimed 
by Mr. Mathews. The proper generic name for it seems to be 
Hypuroleyis Gould? (type, by subsequent designation,? Hirundo 
domicola Jerdon [=Hirundo javanica domicola Jerdon]), since Herse 
Lesson‘ is preoccupied by Herse Oken, 1815, for a genus of Lepidop- 
tera. Mr. Mathews, in designating the type of Hypurolepis Gould, 
states it to be Hirundo domicola Jerdon ‘‘by monotypy’’*; but Gould 
in his original institution of the genus in the text to plate 32 of his 
‘Birds of Asia’ specifically included Hirundo domicola Jerdon, 
Hirundo subfusca Gould [= Hirundo tahitica Gmelin], and provisionally 
Hirundo neoxena Gould.
