414 AVIFAUNA OF CHOTA NAGPUR. 



146.— Cyanecula suecica, Lin. (514.) 



The Indian Blue-throat is included in Colonel Tickell's list, 

 though he only speaks of one specimen from Bamirah near 

 Midnapur. I have seen it in gardens on one or two occasions 

 in Maubhum. It must be very rare in all parts of the Division. 



147.— Calamodyta dumetorum, Blyth. (516.) 



The Lesser Reed Warbler has only been obtained by me in 

 Sirguja, I may very possibly, however, have passed it over in 

 other parts of the Division. About Calcutta I have found it to 

 be common. 



148.— Orthotomus longicauda, Gm. (530.) 



The Indian Tailor Bird occurs in the more open parts of the 

 Division, but is not common, so far as my observation has gone, 

 in any part of Chota Nagpur. 



149.— Prinia gracilis, Franklin. (536.) 



Franklin's Wren Warbler is common in most parts of Chota 

 Nagpur. Captain Beavan gives an interesting account of its 

 habits ; its measurements are as follows : — 



Length 4625 ; wing 1*75 ; tail 2 inches. 



150.— Drymoipus longicauda, Tickell. Sylvia 

 apud Tickell (544.) 



The Long-tailed Wren Warbler was first described from speci- 

 mens obtained by Colonel Tickell in Borabhum and Dalbhum. 

 It seems to have escaped both Captain Beavan and myself. 



151.— Drymoipus neglectus, Jerd. (546.) 



It appears to have been this species which Colonel Tickell 

 identified as D. sylvaticus (J. A. S. B., 1848, p. 301). I have no 

 specimens of the bird myself from Chota Nagpur ; but I have 

 no doubt that it occurs, and likewise D. inornatus* which I have 

 from the Rajmehal hills. 



152.— Phyllopseuste rama, Syhes. (553.) 



Sykes' Warbler has, according to the Indian Museum Cata- 

 logue, been received from, Manbhum and Singhbhum. Captain 

 Beavan does not mention it, and I have no specimens in my 

 collection. 



153.— Phyllopseuste tristis, Blyth. (554.) 



The Brown Tree Warbler occurs, but is, I think, not common 

 in Chota Nagpur, it has however been obtained in Manbhum, 



* Sec Addenda.
