356 BIRDS OF TENASSERIM. 



" Third and fourth primaries longest ; fifth a shade shorter ; 

 sixth, seventh, and eighth, each considerably shorter than the 

 preceding ; second primary intermediate in length between the 

 seventh and eighth, 



" Bastard primary rather large, the exposed part measuring "5 

 in small females to '58 to *65 in males. 



(i First wing bar distinct ; upper bar generally equally so. 



" Length of wing.— Male, 2-50 to 2-35 ; female, 2-35 to 2-2. 



"Length of tail.— Male, 2-05 to 1-8; female, 1-8. 



" Legs and claws lead-colour." 



558 ter.— Phylloscopus seebohmi, Hume. (i). 

 Descr. S. E., V., 335. 



Tavoy. 



Mr. Seebobm is of opinion that this supposed species is 

 founded on an exceedingly abraded specimen of P. viridanus ; 

 such was not my .opinion after comparing it with a very large 

 series of this latter. As however the type specimen is still 

 with Mr. Seebohm, I cannot at present recompare it. When 

 the tjrpe is returned I shall have more to say about it. 



560.— Phylloscopus viridanus, Blyih. (4.) 



Thatone ; Salween E. , Moulmein. 



561.— Phylloscopus affinis, Tick. 



Although I have had this species recorded for years from 

 Tenasserim, I cannot now discover on whose authority, and I 

 have never, that I can remember, myself seen a specimen from 

 that province ; hence I consider its occurrence doubtful. 



563 Us. — Eeguloides coronata, Tem. and Schl. (6). 



Mergui; Hankachin ; Palaw-ton-ton ; Bankasoon. 



Confined to the southernmost district of the province, and 

 there not rare. 



All the specimens formerly entered in my rough lists as 

 Beguloides occipitalis proved, when I carefully examined them, 

 to belong to the present species, 



Corcnata bears a strong superficial resemblance to occipitalis, 

 but it is larger, has a smaller first primary, is generally bright- 

 er and greener, with a brighter yellow edge to the wing, and 

 with pale yellow, sometimes tolerably bright primrose yellow 

 under taiT-coverts, a peculiarity by which, as long ago pointed 

 out by Mr. Brooks., S. F.,IV., 275, the species may be at once 

 recognized. The under tail-coverts in occipitalis are white.
