AVIFAUNA OF CHOTA NAGPUR. 293 



Oriolus kundoo, Sykes. (470). 



In speaking of the distribution of this bird I stated that I 

 had obtained it in the Rajmehal Hills. Subsequently I found 

 that my specimens from that part of the country should be re- 

 ferred to 0. indicus. 



Cercotrichas macrourus, Gm. (476). 



When passing through Purulia at the end of last year I saw 

 some young Shamas for sale, which were said to have been ob- 

 tained in the Ajudia Hills a few miles to the south. This 

 confirms Captain Beavan's informant's account that it breeds in 

 the district of Manbhum. 



I shot several specimens in the northern part of Sambalpur, 

 where, however, it is far from common. 



Cyanecula suecica, Lin. (514). 



The Indian Blue Throat has been seen and obtained by Mr. 

 Levin in Palamow. 



Drymoipus inornatus, Sykes. 



The Common Wren Warbler has already been given in the 

 addenda at the end of my list. Mr. Levin writes that he has 

 obtained it in Palamow. 



310.— Budytes citreola, Pallas. (594). 



The Yellow-headed Wagtail should, I think, be formally in- 

 cluded in the list. I did not do so before as I had no specimen 

 by me. I find I have a note of having got one in Singh- 

 bhum, and Mr. Levin writes that it was common in the Lobji 

 and Koel rivers in Palamow during the cold weather of 1873-74. 



Eulabes intermedia, Say. (692). 



The Black Maina, which Captain Beavan spoke of as E. reli- 

 giosa, must have been this species, as it is the one found in 

 Sambalpur.* In my paper I admitted the probability of its 

 being found in the jungles of Sarunda and Gangpur. Strange 

 to say, on my first day's march into Sarunda at the end of last 

 year a flock of a dozen of these birds flew high over my head : 

 unfortunately they were out of shot range. 



Pterocles fasciatus, Scop. (800). 



The Painted Sand Grouse breeds in Palamow according to 

 Mr. Levin.
