resembles the lien of S. cyanea very closely, and has a white 

 patch on the fore neck, but the head, sides of face, throat, 

 and breast are more rufous than in S. cyanea. Like 

 the latter, it has some white on the inner webs of the tail- 

 feathers.

This bird was met with on the top of the mountain. It is

Mr. Whitehead has kindly lent me specimens of the 

 four species mentioned above, and I find that in every in- 

 stance the Penrisen specimens are identical with others from 

 Kina Balu.

 tacus dufresnianus. By T. Salvadori, C.M.Z:S. 



The Amazon generally called Chrysotis dufresniana is the
