nary form of Rhipidura, cup-shaped, composed of fine dry 

 fibres, and finished off on the outside with a thin covering of 

 spiders' webs, the whole structure being placed on a narrow 

 horizontal branch.

 Mus. iv. p. 343 (1879). 



A fine series of this beautiful bright chestnut Flycatcher 

 was obtained in the neighbourhood of Cape Engano. In 

 fully adult males the tail is much in excess of the measure- 

 ment given by Sharpe {op. cit.) ; instead of 3"95 inches the 

 tail measures 6'45 in the finest specimen, and in several speci- 

 mens the longest feathers are between 5 and 6 inches long. 

 It is the middle pair of feathers that are produced, far sur- 

 passing the second pair in length. The genus Zeocephus 

 must therefore be transferred to section /" of Sharpens key, 

 '^ Tail with elongated centre tail-feathers, &c.,'' which in- 

 cludes the Paradise Flycatchers {Terpsiphone) .

A single male specimen of the Olive Flycatcher- Warbler 

 was obtained in the neighbourhood of Cape Engaiio. It has 

 hitherto been recorded from the islands of Samar and Negros 

 [Moseley), and also from Mindanao, Sulu, and Tawi Tawi 

 {Bourns 6j Worcester) , but this is the first time it has been 

 met with in Luzon. The types of this species are in the 

 British Museum collection, and are quite similar to the 

 Engaiio bird.
