“ Arracan ;” Ibis, 1870, p. 168. 
Mr. Blyth (/.¢.) states that his Warbler also occurs in the Philippines: it may, how- 
ever, prove to be the nearly allied P. borealis, Blasius. 
CALAMODYTINZ&. 
ACROCEPHALUS, Naumann. 
110. AcROCEPHALUS ORIENTALIS. 
Salicaria turdina orientalis, Schlegel, Faun. Jap. Aves, p. 50, pl. 21, “ Japan.”

Sylvia turdoides, ap. Kittlitz, Liitke, Voy. (Postels), ii. p. 327, “ Manilla.” 
Hab. Luzon, February 7; Zebu, March; bill above grey-brown; below reddish; legs 
and nails pale grey (Meyer). 
I am unable to separate these Philippine individuals from Amoy examples. Wing 
3°25; tail 3:12; tarsus 1:12. It must have been specimens of this species, brought to 
France by Sonnerat from the Philippines, which were confounded by Montbeillard with 
La Rousserole (Montb. Hist. Nat. iii. p. 294).

grey mantle, and bright golden olive-green wings and tail. Its nearest known ally is 
O. derbianus.
