obtained by Mr. Thompson and myself previously, including 

 two new species of Suthora and a Urocichla very distinct 

 from the two forms recorded respectively from Sikhim and 

 the hills of Assam. In addition, a number of species that 

 were obtained by us on Loi San Pa, in the Mong Kong 

 State, are recorded over a wide range from Byinkyi Moun- 

 tain, close to the border of the Pyinmana district in the west, 

 to the Mekong Valley on the eastern frontier of the States. 



The area in which this collection was made may be 

 roughly said to extend from 18° to 21° N. lat., and. from 



97° to 99° 30' E. long., though only an occasional place, 



generally a high mountain, was actually investigated over this 



vast extent of country. 



My best thanks are due to Messrs. Thompson and Craddock 



for kindly entrusting me with their collection, and to Dr. R. 



Bowdler Sharpe for great assistance in the identification of 



the specimens.
