Fam. TiMALiiD.«. 



61. TiMALiA MACULATA, Tcmm. PI. Col. 593. fig. 1. 

 Brought from the Dyak by my hunter. 



62. TiMALiA NiGRicoLLis, Tcmm. PI. Col. 594. fig. 2. 

 Shot by my hunter at Banjermassing. 



63. TiMALiA, sp. ? (Sikotan gunong.') 



Shot by the hunter on the Riam Kanan. 



[Allied to T. erythroptera, Blyth, of Malacca, but differs, accord- 

 ing to Mr. "Wallace, who has kindly compared it, in having the back 

 rusty red, of the same colour as the wings, and a much darker head. 

 —P. L. S.] 



64. MixoRNis BORNEENSis, Bp. Consp. p. 217. 

 Shot by my hunter at Banjermassing. 



65. Macronus ptilosus, Jard. & Selb. (Burong chamara.') 



Not uncommon, according to my hunter ; but I have not seen it 

 alive. 



66. Trichostoma umbratile, Strickland, Contr. toOrn. 1849, 

 p. 126, pi. 35. {Kruang taush.) 



My hunter says this bird is common, though I have never seen it; 

 he says it never flies above the grass. 



[Mr. Wallace notes this species as being very close to T. abbottii, 

 Blyth, from which it only differs in more rufous wings and flanks, 

 and less greyish white on the lores. — P. L. S.] 



Fam. PittidjE. 



67. Pitta schwaneri, Temm. : Bp. Consp. p. 256. 



Rare, but generally distributed in dry woody places. Like P. 

 miilleri, it rarely perches upon trees. 



68. Pitta muelleri, Bp. Consp. p. 256. 



Rather rare : haunts bushy places. 



[A young bird of this species in Mr. Mottley's collection has the 

 tips of the wing-covers white, as in Elliot's Pitta leucoptera. I have 

 little doubt that the latter (described in Proc. Acad. Sc. Phil. 1861, 

 p. 153, and figured in the 'Monograph,' pi. 25) is the young of 

 Pitta philippensis. — P. L. S.] 



Fam. Megalurid^. 



69. Orthotomus cineraceus, Blyth : Moore's Cat. p. 315. 



A very common bird among grass, over the tops of which it flies 

 with a quick jerking flight, often throwing up the tail. 



[Compared by Mr. Wallace with specimens in the E. I. M. — 

 P. L. S.]
