  A

  with 
  ashy 
  grey 
  head. 
  I 
  cannot 
  dis- 
  

   tinguish 
  between 
  the 
  Formosan 
  and 
  Chinese 
  continental 
  

   forms 
  of 
  this 
  species.

  I 
  have 
  lately 
  met 
  with 
  a 
  description 
  of 
  this 
  bird, 
  and 
  have 
  

   no 
  doubt 
  that 
  my 
  supposed 
  Cryptolopha 
  is 
  nothing 
  but 
  this 
  

   species. 
  

  

  29. 
  Pycnonotus 
  hainanus, 
  Swinhoe. 
  

  

  A 
  single 
  specimen. 
  This 
  species 
  is 
  peculiar 
  to 
  Hainan. 
  

  

  30. 
  Hemixus 
  castanonotus, 
  Swinhoe. 
  

  

  The 
  figure 
  in 
  P. 
  Z. 
  S. 
  (1890, 
  p. 
  346, 
  pi. 
  xxvii.) 
  is 
  misleading, 
  

   the 
  type 
  from 
  which 
  it 
  was 
  taken 
  having 
  been 
  either 
  abraded 
  

   or 
  dirty. 
  In 
  perfect 
  specimens 
  the 
  underparts 
  are 
  quite 
  as 
  

   pure 
  as 
  in 
  H. 
  canipennis 
  ; 
  the 
  breast 
  in 
  both 
  species 
  is 
  suffused 
  

   with 
  a 
  wash 
  of 
  bluish 
  grey 
  ; 
  but 
  in 
  only 
  one 
  specimen 
  — 
  an 
  

   abraded 
  one 
  — 
  is 
  there 
  any 
  trace 
  of 
  smoky 
  brown 
  on 
  the 
  

   underparts, 
  and 
  then 
  it 
  is 
  confined 
  to 
  the 
  breast. 
  In 
  good 
  

   skins 
  the 
  basal 
  half 
  of 
  the 
  rectrices 
  is 
  externally 
  edged 
  with 
  

   yellow 
  ; 
  in 
  the 
  male 
  the 
  chestnut 
  back 
  is 
  deeper 
  coloured 
  

   than 
  in 
  the 
  female. 
  This 
  species 
  is 
  peculiar 
  to 
  Hainan.
