14. * LinnaitTus PHILIPPENSIS. (Pl. XXIV.) 
Spizaétus philippensis, Gurney, Gould, Birds of Asia, pt. 15 (sub Spizaétus alboniger), “ Philippine 
Islands” (June J, 1863). 
Spizaétus kienerii, Gervais, Guérin, Mag. Zool. v. pl. 35, “ Himalayas” (1835) apud Schlegel, 
Mus. Pays-Bas, Astures, p. 12, “ Lugon,”’ nec Gervais.

The figure is taken from the first of the two examples described by Mr. Gurney (J. ¢.) ; 
and it will be observed that the Philippine bird nearly resembles the small South- 
Indian and Ceylon race, Z. ceylonensis (Gm.). LL. kienerii may likewise occur in 
Luzon; but the single individual in the Leyden Museum, doubtfully referred to it by 
Professor Schlegel, does not agree with what is known of either the young or adult 
plumage of that well-marked species.

Africa only, although stated by Sonnerat to likewise inhabit the Philippines.
