XII. On a Collection of Birds from Mount Mulu in Sarawak. 

 Mr. Hose has sent home a collection made by his hunters 

 on this hitherto unexplored mountain*, between the mouths 

 of September and December 1893. I give a list of the 

 species, adding references to Mr. Everett^s list and the 

 elevations at which they were obtained. It is evident 

 that Mt. Mulu belongs to the same system of the Himalayan 

 oflFshoots, such as Kina Balu, Dulit, and Kalulong in 

 Sarawak and North-western Borneo. The collection from 

 Mt. Mulu has proved somewhat disappointing, as from its 

 being a limestone mountain I had hoped that some peculiar 

 forms might have occurred, such as Gypsophila in Tenasserim 

 (c/. Gates, Faun. Brit. Ind., Birds, i. p. 149, 1889).
