190 VISCOUNT WALDEN ON THE BIRDS 
ever cited. Cuvier bestowed the Museum title of Gracula caudata on two examples in 
the Paris Museum—one said to have been obtained in Australia, the other in Bengal. 
Dr. Pucheran, however (J. ¢.), is of opinion that the second example in reality came 
from the Philippines, as Manilla is inscribed on its stand, and also because it agrees 
with an authentic Philippine individual in the Paris Museum, obtained by MM. Eydoux 
and Souleyet. I can find no other record of a species of this genus having been 
observed or obtained in the Philippines. Indian authors seem to have been somewhat 
hasty in identifying the common Indian Timalia chatarrhea, Frankl., with Gracula 
caudata, Cuv. Dr. Pucheran (J. c.) does not say that the Bengal bird is equally found 
in the Philippines, as stated by Mr. Blyth (J. c.). 
Timalia leucotis, Strickl.,is erroneously given from Manilla by Mr. G. R. Gray in the 
Hand-list, no. 4748. 
Homochlamys luscinia, Salvadori, Atti R. Accad. Sc. Torino, v. p. 510, ‘“ Filippine o 
China?” (1870) is, according to its author, a ‘Timaliine form, which was contained in 
a collection of Chinese and Philippine birds sent to the Turm Museum. As the 
describer is not certain of its origin, it is not included in this list.

‘ Erroneously stated in the ‘ Zoological Record’ for 1870, p. 47, to be from the Philippines and China, an 
error repeated in the Hand-list, iii. p. 263, no. 4763*. Count Salvadori has since (Ibis, 1873, April, p. 179) 
identified it with Calamoherpe (Herbivow) cantwriens, Swinhoe, a Chinese and Formosan species, but which 
may migrate to the Philippines. Count Salyadori’s generic title has precedence.
