400 Viscount Walden on new Species of Birds. 
Genus 'THYSANOPRYMNA, h. gen. 
Allied to Hucereon, but differmg much in the neuration of 
the secondaries, and in the presence of a fringe of short hair- 
scales round the posterior margin of the last segment of the 
abdomen, and a tuft of hairs on each side of the anal appendices : 
the venation of secondaries is as follows :—subcostal with three 
branches, the first emitted before the end of the cell and run- 
ning to costa, the second and third forming a fork to apex, one 
radial emitted from the end of cell, discocellulars forming a 
regularly arched sinus; median nervure with three branches, 
the third of which is forked beyond the end of the cell (this 
fork is probably produced by an aberrant position of the 
lower radial, from which the lower discocellular has receded). 
Type 7. pyrrhopyga (Walker).

covered by Lieutenant Wardlaw Ramsay in Burma. By 
ArtTHuR, Viscount WALDEN, P.Z.8., F.R.S. 
Megalema Ramsayi, n. sp. 
The broad superciliary stripe composed of silvery-grey- 
centred feathers, giving a streaked appearance to the super- 
cilium. Otherwise plumage and dimensions of W. Franklin. 
I have compared a large series of typical examples of 
M. Frankliné trom Darjeeling and Asalu with a considerable 
series of this form obtained by Lieutenant Wardlaw Ramsay, 
at altitudes varying from 2000 to 4000 feet, in the Karen-hee 
hills. That gentleman records the iris as being “ nut-brown ; 
bill black, basal portion of maxilla and lower part of mandible 
slate-colour; legs dirty greenish white.’ Sexes alike. 
Aithopyga sanguinipectus, n. sp. 
Above as in 4. saturata (Hodgs.), the yellow band on the 
rump being somewhat more developed. Underneath, all the 
chin, throat, and two streaks diverging from the throat and 
descending to the breast metallic violet-blue; upper part of 
breast velvety black ; remainder of under surface pale yellow, 
many of the lower breast-feathers being centred and streaked 
with blood-red. A representative form of 4’, saturata. 
Bill 0°65 inch, wing 2°12, middle pair of rectrices 3°25.
