256 Mr, F. Nicholson on a second 



wattle round eye dark scarlet ; bill black ; legs and feet red. 

 " Berkaka/' 



No. 406, ? . In forest at foot of Kaba volcano, 3000 feet, 

 Oct. Q, 1881. Irides dark brown; bill black; legs and 

 feet red ; wattle round eye scarlet ; skin of neck scarlet 

 (below feathers). Feeds on seeds. 



The specimens sent by Mr. Forbes differ consideraly from 

 the type of Arhorophila personata in the British Museum, 

 being much more of a bluish ash-colour on the fore neck and 

 breast, while the back is much more closely barred with 

 black, and the flanks are much more broadly and distinctly 

 tarred with black and white. The different plumages of this 

 species have not been thoroughly worked out ; but the Su- 

 matran bird may ultimately prove to be distinct.
