192 A LIST OF THE BIRDS OF PEQU.. 
110.—Micropternus pheoceps, Bly. (178.) 
Very common on the eastern slopes of the Pegu hills from the 
frontier right down to Rangoon, round which town it is 
specially abundant.* 
111.—Tiga javanensis, Ljung. (184.) 
Spread over the whole province in great numbers. It is I 
fancy the Woodpecker most generally met with, and it affects all 
descriptions of jungle. 
112,—Sasia ochracea, Hodgs. (187.) 
I got one specimen on the Pegu hills on the eastern side in 
heavy evergreen forest. It probably occurs in other places. 
113.—Iynx torquilla, Lin. (188.) 
A common cold weather visitor. Ihave procured it near 
Thyetmyo and also near Kyeikpadein. 
-114.—Megalema hodgsoni, Bp, (192.) 
Every mile of forest in the province contains dozens of this 
bird. It is equally common in the dry and in the evergreen 
forests. 
115.—Megalema asiatica, Lath. (195.) 
As common as the preceding, but confined to the damp ever- 
green forests on the Pegu hills. 
116.—Xantholeema hemacephala, P.L.S. Miil.(197.) 
Universally distributed throughout the plains, chiefly in spare 
jungle, and in cultivated lands. 
117.—Megalema cyanotis, Bly. (198 ¢er.) 
An inhabitant of thick forests from the frontier down to 
Rangoon, and not occurring, I think, on the western side of the 
Pegu hills. 
118.—Cuculus canorus, Zin. (199.) 
I have procured this bird from August to February round 
Peou and Kyeikpadein. It is fairly common, but (probably 
owing to the season it visits us) I have never heard it call. 
I got a specimen at Prome in November. Capt. Ramsay heard 
the call of this Cuckoo quite commonly in Karennee. The 
wings of Pegu birds run from 7°75 to 8:1. 
* And we have several specimens from Thyetmyo, and others from Bassein, 
where also Blanford procured it.—Eb., 8, F.
