Six specimens from " Magungo." 



The curious orange-yellow markings of the wing contrast strikingly 

 with the fine light grey of the upper parts. The colour of the tail- 

 and wing-feathers is a pale ohsolete brown strongly shaded with 

 bluish grey ; lores and the small feathers round the eye white ; vent 

 with a very faint fulvous shade. 



The systematic position of this elegant form is also with the 

 Malurince, Sundev.

Typical. A short and compact little bird, and, I think, un- 

 described. It is allied to Levaillant's I'Ondule {Muscicapafuscula, 

 Sund.). The principal colour of the upper parts is a deep rich 

 brown. The uppermost part of the chin has a faint brownish shade.
