_ A LIST OF THE BIRDS OF PEGU. 193 
119.—Cuculus striatus, Drap. (200.) 
{ procured one specimen at Kyeikpadein in October. It 
seems rare. This bird was a female: Wing, 6:8; tail, 6:0; bill 
at front, 75. The breast is washed with chestnut and 
the belly is tinged with buff, 
120.—Cuculus sonnerati, Lath. (202.) 
Captain Ramsay records this Cuckoo from Thyetmyo. I 
have never met with it. 
121.—Cuculus micropterus, Gould, (203.) 
Very generally distributed over the whole province in 
forests and well-wooded parts of the country. 
122.—Hierococcyx nisicolor, Hodgs. (206.) 
I procured one specimen at Kyeikpadein in November, a 
male, with the wing 6:9, and tail 6:0. Another bird, unsexed, 
from near Tounghoo has the wing 6°8, and tail 6:2. Both are 
rufous below, but unbarred, and the centres of the feathers are 
slightly ashy. 
123.—Hierococcyx sparveroides, Vig. (207.) 
Very equally distributed over the whole province, but not 
common except on the higher hills. 
124.—Cacomantis threnodes, Cab. (209.) 
A very common bird throughout the plains, frequenting 
gardens and low jungle. They are fond of swamps and jheels, 
where no doubt caterpillars are abundant. Wings of Pegu 
birds range from 4:0 to 4°6. 
125.—Surniculus lugubris, Horsf. (21C.) 
A common bird in Lower Pegu from Pegu down to Rangoon. 
It probably occurs throughout the better-wooded and other 
parts of the province. 
126.—Chrysococcyx maculatus, Gm. (211.) 
I have heard of only one specimen of this species shot within 
my limits. It was procured by Mr. Olive, and is now in my 
possession. It is in adult plumage, and cannot be confounded 
with the next. It was shot at Prome. 
127.—Chrysococcyx xanthorhynchus, Horsf. 
(211 bis.) 
A fairly common bird near Kyeikpadein, and also at 
Rangoon. A young bird of this genus, and very probably this
