a Kordofan (J". Petherick) 1848. 



In his paper on Kordofan birds, and again in his notes on birds 

 from the Gaboon river W. Africa, Strickland treated this species 

 as identical with P. barbatus. Their differences seem now to be ge- 

 nerally recognized. 



494. Pycnonotus bengalensis. 



Pycnonotus bengalensis, Blyth, J. A. S. B. xix. p. 566. 



Ixos pygceus, Hodgs. Zool. Misc. p. 84 (descr. nulla).

a (Askew). b, c Madras (A. Strickland) 1833. d Madras 

 (Stevens) 1843. 



This specific name was based on the Ceylonese and not the Chinese 

 bird, as Blyth, following Cassin, erroneously asserts. (Ibis, 1867, 

 p. 8). (Cf. Walden, Ibis, 1866, p. 318 note.)
