Pithys Tuflgularis^ Lawr. nee Bodd. No. 58 of 

 Part I. 

 I sent this species to Mr. Sclater for verification, but it proved 

 to be unknown to him, and he considers it to be a Myrmeciza. 

 I have therefore described it as a new species of that genus. 

 In placing it provisionally as Pithys rufigularis, I had doubts 

 as to its generic as well as specific position being correct. For 

 its description see Part I. antea, p. 293,
