204 A LIST OF THE BIRDS OF PEGU. 
178.—Culicicapa ceylonensis, Swans. (295.) 
In Upper Pegu it seems to be confined to the hills, but in the 
lower parts it is generally distributed as a cold weather 
visitor. 
179.—Hemichelidon sibiricus, Gm. (296.) 
A rather rare bird in general, but appears to occur in all 
parts of the province. 
180.—Alseonax latirostris, Raf. (297.) 
Excessively common in Lower Pegu during the dry weather, 
particularly near Rangoon and Pegu. Captain Ramsay got it 
at Tounghoo, but I did not meet with it at Thyetmyo. 
181.—Alseonax ferrugineus, Hodgs. (299.) 
Of rare occurrence. I have got two specimens near Kyeik- 
padein in the course of five or six years. Thyetmyo (Déyth). 
182.—Stoporala melanops, Vig. (301.) 
During one dry season this bird was excessively abundant 
round Kyeikpadein, and I ‘procured as many as I wanted. I 
have seen it every year again, but not in such large numbers. 
Dr. Armstrong got it at Syriam and Elephant Point.* 
183.—Cyornis rubeculoides, Vig. (804,) 
A common bird over the whole province in the dry weather. 
184.—Erythrosterna albicilla, Pall. (823.) 
Common over the whole province during the dry weather, 
185.— Erythrosterna maculata, Tick. (326.) 
I shot one bird at Kyeikpadein in the cold weather, It is 
very rare apparently. 
186.—Myiophoneus eugenii, Hume. (343 bis.) 
Confined to the rocky streams in the Pegu hills where it is 
common. Does not appear to cross the Irrawaddy river to the 
west, where temmincki replaces it. 
187.—Hydrornis oatesi, Zume. (344 dis.) 
Common in certain streams of the evergreen forests of the 
Pegu hills.
