372. Tribura lutiventris. — The Brown Bush-Warbler. 



A rare resident. I have had several nests brought to me this year. These 

 agree exactly with others of this genus. 



373. Tribura mandellu. — Mandelli's Bush-Warbler. 



Taken in Shillong. I have procured two specimens both trapped on their 

 nests. 



374. Orthotomus sutorius. — The IndiaD Tailor-bird. 

 Very common. 



375. Orthotomus atrigularis. — The Black-necked Tailor-bird. 

 Specimens of Tailor-birds procured by my men at Lyetkynsew all proved to 



be of this species and it probably is not rare at the higher elevations. 



379. Cisticola tytleri. — The Yellow-headed Fantail- Warbler. 

 Common in grass lands. 



380. Cisticola volitans. — The Golden-headed Fantail-Warbler. 



A Malayan bird occurring on the Kopili Hiver on both banks. Very local, 

 but by no means rare in that one place. 



381. Cisticola ccrsitans. — The Rufous Fantailed- Warbler. 

 Extremely common wherever the country is suitable. The nest is a 



favourite one for Cucuhts canorus to deposit its eggs in. They look very 

 ridiculous nearly filling up the tiny nest. 



382. Franklinia gracilis. — Franklin's Wren-Warbler. 

 Common. 



383. Franklinia rufescens. — Beavan's Wren-Warbler. 

 Common. 



389. Megalurus palustris. — The Striated Marsh-Warbler. 

 Common near the plains, and breeds all round the foot of the Hills in the 

 Assam Valley, but is rare in the Surmar. 



393. Arundinax aedon. — The Thick-billed Warbler. 

 Common near Sylhet. 



405. Phylloscopus affinis. — Tickell's Willow-Warbler. 

 Very common in Shillong gardens in winter, it is possible, that some stay to 

 breed. 



414. Phylloscopus pulcher.< — The Orange-barred Willow-Warbler. 

 Has been found in these Bills. 



415. Phylloscopus proregclus. — Pallas's Willow-Warbler. 

 A winter migrant. 



417. Phylloscopus superciliosus. — The Crowned Willow-Warbler. 

 Very common, possibly resident. 



419. Phylloscopus mandkllu.— Mendelli's Willow-Warbler. 

 Resident but rare. Undoubtedly many other Pfylloscnpi and allied War- 

 blers occur in Shillong as migrants, but 1 can find no further records. 



424. Acanthopneuste MAGNiROSTRis.— The Large-billed Willow- 

 Warbler. 

 Recorded.
