138 MR. D. G. ELLIOT ON A NEW PHEASANT. [Feb. /, 



together. The drawing was made from a living specimen in Dr. 

 Anderson's possession, and as he has given orders for it to be killed 

 and forwarded to London from Calcutta, we may expect before very 

 long to be in possession of the skin. 



It is with much pleasure that I bestow upon this species the name 

 of its discoverer, the well-known naturalist, to record in this manner 

 my appreciation of the courtesy which induced him to place the spe- 

 cimen in my hands for description. 



No measurements were given in the drawing, which is much 

 reduced from the natural size ; but Dr. Anderson informs me that 

 the bird is somewhat larger than the E. lineatus. Should the skin 

 arrive safely, I shall figure it of the size of life in my ' Monograph of 

 the Vhasianidoe? This makes the twelfth species of the genus 

 Euplocamus now known to me ; they are : —
