(Entomobia), sp., above brown, with pale spots; underneath white, with grey spots. 
Back of the head and on each side a spot at gape, azure blue. Cheeks and throat red 
brown. Forehead brown, striated with black. Allied to A. pulchella, Horst.” 
This may possibly be 4. hombroni in immature plumage.

Dacelo lessoni, Vigors, /. ¢., junior. 
Hab. Luzon (EHydoux & Souleyet). 
This and the last species, together with Dacelo concreta, Temm., form a natural sub- 
division ; and I retain for it Hombron’s generic title of Actenoides, merged by Mr. 
Sharpe in the unwieldy group he has united under the generic name of Halcyon. 
Mr. Sharpe (tom. cit.) enumerates thirteen Philippine Kingfishers. I have reduced 
this number to twelve by the exclusion of H. smyrnensis. Satisfactory proof of the 
Philippine habitat of two others, C. coromanda and JL. pileata, is still needed; and the 
specific validity of Crya philippensis has yet to be confirmed.
