" Iris reddish, light brownish-red, or yellowish-red ; bill 

 pale greyish-blue at the base, blackish towards the tip ; feet 

 pale bluish-grey, soles yellowish." 



I agree with Dr. Hartert in placing this very remarkable 

 bird in close proximity to the genus Zostervps.

" Iris crimson ; bill black ; feet greyish-olive." 



This interesting species, new to the British Museum, 

 appears to belong to the aberrant section of the genus 

 Zosterops which lacks the white ring round the eye. In 

 other respects it seems to be most nearly allied to Z. fron- 

 talis Reichenb. from the mountains of Java.
