Orthotomus atrigularis nitidus Kloss, Ibis, 1918, p. 210. 



2 c?, 1 ? . Daban, 650 ft., S. Annam. 16-25 March, 

 1918. 



1 ? . Trang Bom, Cochiu China. 3 Juue, 1918. 



"Iris ochreous ; maxilla brown, mandible fleshy; feet 

 fleshy." 



Males. T.L. 120, 122 ; W. 46, 46 ram. 



Females. T. L. 113, 104 ; W. 43, 44 mm. 



These specimens agree in their bright green upper parts 

 with the majority of specimens of the Malay Peninsula from 

 Koh Samui to Selangor, within which region, however, 

 dark-coloured birds also occur. Comparison is needed with 

 the true O. atrigularis from Borneo.

1 (J . Daban, 650 ft., S. Annam. 20 March, 1918. 



" Iris ochreous ; maxilla horny brown, mandible fleshy ; 

 feet yellowish fleshy.'^ 



T. L. 131 ; W. 45 mm. 



This specimen agrees well with typical specimens of S. s. 

 maculicoUis from the Malay Peninsula, having the ear-coverts 

 distinctly streaked. The form from eastern Siam is certainly 

 true S. s. sutoria (Moore) with these parts quite uniform. 



176. Lusciniola luteiventris (Hodgs.). 

 Hartert, ViJg. palliarkt. Faun. i. 1910, p. 541. 



1 ? . Dalat, 5000 ft., S. Annam. 3 May, 1918. 



" Iris brown ; maxilla black, mandible brownish grey ; 

 feet brownish grey." 



T.L. 140; W. 51; T. 67 mm. 



The specimen is moulting and in poor condition ; there 

 are a few black spots on the sides of the breast, and our 

 identification is therefore open to some doubt. The super- 

 cilium is white, tolerably distinct, not extending behind the 

 eye; otherwise the bird agrees fairly well with the descrip- 

 tion of Cettia russula (H. II. Slater, Ibis, 1897, p. 171) from 

 Kuatun, which Hartert [loc. cit ) has identified with the
