Rasa Wuopan of the Malays (Eyton). 
Dein-NGYEEN of the Arracanese (Blyth). 
This is a rare bird on the continent of India. It has been ob- 
tained in the Carnatic by Mr. Jerdon, and it has also been found, 
though rarely, on the west coast, and in the Deccan. A single 
specimen has been obtained in Nepal by Mr. Hodgson, which exactly 
agrees with Jerdon’s figure and those obtained from Pinang by Dr. 
Cantor. It occurs in Arracan, where it appears to be not very un- 
common.

The Malayan Paradise Flycatcher. 
The inferior size, and the much shorter and different-looking crest, 
afford invariable distinctions, by which this species may be recognized 
apart from T'ch. paradisi.

throat and breast.
