322 MR. R. B. SHARPE ON BIRDS COLLECTED BY 



[I saw others of this species when I reached the jungle on the hill-sides during an 

 excursion I made into the mountains. — J. B. S.] 



This new form of Coucal is most nearly allied to Rhinococcyx curvirostris, from which 

 it differs not only in the structural peculiarities of the nostrils hut also in colouring. 

 It has an olive-hrown head and partial rufous collar round the neck, and has none of the 

 greenish black colour on the abdomen and thighs, these being rufous like the breast. 

 By Prof. Steere's desire I have named this species after Mr. Harrington, Professor of 

 Botany in the University of Michigan, and an old schoolfellow and college friend of the 

 discoverer's.

 [I shot this Hornbill on the highest ridge of the mountains west of Ilo-Ilo. This is 



the only place where any of the virgin forest is left ; and here alone I saw these birds. 



They were not very rare ; but I could only get a single specimen, as they flew so high in 



the trees that my gun could scarcely reach them. — J. B. S.]
