15. Trochalopteron canorum (L.). 



Young and adult from Chang-yang Hsien at the end 

 of the summer. 



16. lanthocincla cinereiceps (Styan). 

 T. & B. p. 167. 



An adult male with a pure black cap, as in Fohkien 

 examples, dated 24 September, and a young male, dated 

 22 November, with greyish-olive crown, the feathers of 

 which are narrowly edged \\ ith dark brown. The secondaries 

 and the rectrices in the adult are broad and truncated at their 

 extremities, whereas in the young bird they are narrower 

 and rounded. 



17. Pomatorhinus macclellandi gravivox David. 

 T. & B. p. 167. 



Chang-yang Hsien. Two examples sexed male and one 

 sexed female, dated 15 October and 1 January, and 3 

 February, answer exactly to Pere David's description in 'Las 

 Oiseaux de la Chine/ except that the under mandible is livid 

 grey, not yellow. The legs are dark reddish with pale claws. 

 An example, given to me by Mr. Styan, and labelled 

 " Ichang, Nov. 1893,'' has the upper parts of a somewhat 

 golden brown, and the under mandible yellow. 



18. Pomatorhinus ruficollis styani Seebohni. 

 T. & B. p. 167. 



Chang-yang Hsien, six specimens, dated 26 August to 

 29 December. Wing 2*83 to 3'10 in. This Scimitar- 

 Babbler, which occurs on the Yangtse as far east as 

 Chinkiang, is very different from the Fohkien bird, having 

 olive-brown, not chestnut-brown, upper parts and the under- 

 parts greyish- or pale brownish-olive. 



19. Schceniparus brunneus olivacens (Styan). 

 Styan, Ibis, 1X96, p. 312. 



One example obtained in Chang-yang Hsien at the end of 

 the summer. I saw at the Museum at Harvard the Babbler 

 designated by Thayer and Bangs as Schceniparus variegatus
