900. A LIST OF THE BIRDS OF PEGU: 
155.—Volvocivora* avensis, Bly. (268 dis.) 
Fairly common everywhere, but not so numerous as the 
rext. It frequents orchards and clumps of trees, but is not 
found, I think, in forests. 
156.—Volvocivora intermedia, Hume. (269 bis.) 
More common than the preceding, but more of a forest bird, 
I think it is confined to the southern portions of the province. 
157.—Graucalus macii, Less. (270.) 
Fairly common in all parts of Pegu. 
158.—Pericrocotus elegans, MeClell. (271 fer.) 
This bird is common in all the forests and well-wooded parts 
of the province. 
159.—Pericrocotus roseus, Vieill. (275.) 
1 have found this species very common near Pegu and 
Kyeikpadein. Captain Ramsay got it at Tounghoo, and Dr. 
Armstrong at Rangoon and Syriam.t 
160.—Pericrocotus peregrinus, Zin. (276.) 
Extremely abundant everywhere, except perhaps in the 
thicker forests on the hills. 
161.—Pericrocotus albifrons, Jerd. (277 bis.) 
Confined strictly to Thyetmyo and a few miles south of 
this place. It probably extends far above the frontier.} 
162.—Pericrocotus cinereus, Lafr. (277 quat.) 
One single bird, a female, procured at Kyeikpadein, is, 
referable to the present species, and differs in many important 
particulars from the next species. I have compared it with a 
series in the British Museum, 
163.—Pericrocotus cantonensis, Swink. (277 ter.) 
I have three females of this species, two killed at Kyeik- 
padein and one at Malewoon, iu Tenasserim. The three 
specimens are all alike. 
The following remarks apply only to females, all my birds 
being of this sex :-— 
In cinereus the upper plumage is a dark brown, and the 
rump and upper tail-coverts concolorous with it. 
* L prefer to retain Volvocivora for the non-metallic-glossed-plumaged Asiatic 
species, and restrict Campophaga to the metallic-glossed-plumaged African species,—
