■^40. LocusTELLA ocHOTENsis (Midd.). [360, part.] 



Foocliow. Styan, Ibis, 1887, p. 220. 



This Warbler is extremely abundant at Swatow in May. 

 I found it in the mangrove marshes behind the town ; it 

 kept generally on the ground, running actively on the mud 

 under the bushes. 



"/''■41. Cettia canturiens (Swiuh.). [352.] 

 Foochow. Styan, Ibis, 1887, p. 220. 

 A winter bird on Foochow and Swatow hills. 



•^42. Cettia FORTiPEs (Hodgs.). [383.] 

 Horeites robustipes, Swiuh. (See Styan, Ibis, 1891, p. 341.) 

 Foochow. Styan, Ibis, 1887, p. 220. 

 I believe that this bird occurs on the Swatow hills, but 

 I did not shoot any specimens. 



, 43. Cisticola cisticola (Temm.). [371.] 

 Foochow. Styan, Ibis, 1887, p. 220.

 Foochow. Styan, Ibis, 1887, p. 220. 

 Less common at Swatow than at Foochow. 



Eggs and nests of this and the following species were 

 obtained at Swatow in July. 



46. Prinia sonitans, Swinh. [380.] 

 Foochow. Styan, Ibis, 1887, p. 221. 



Extremely abundant on the Swatow plain. It is not com- 

 mon at Foochow, and is evidently fond of dry sandy ground 

 and the neighbourhood of long grasses and tangled jungle. 

 The call is a sort of mewing sound, and is very loud for so 

 small a bird. 



47. SuTORiA sutoria (Forster). [379.] 

 Foochow. Styan, Ibis, 1887, p. 221. 

 Very common at Foochow and Swatow.
