Mr. Pryer has sent a specimen of this Shrike, which agrees with 



one from Sandakan already in the British Museum. These in turn 



agree with Philippine examples, and seem to belong to a distinct race 



of L. bentet.

 lateribus nigris distinguendum. Long, tot. 2' 9, culm. 04, alee 

 1"85, caudcB 1*0, tarsi 0'45. 



The first collection sent by Mr. Pryer contained a single spe- 

 cimen of this Bicceum : it appeared to be quite different from 

 D. nigrimentum, which is in the collection of the British Museum. 

 Subsequently Mr. Pryer forwarded some more adult males in his 

 second and third consignments ; and as all of the'se agree in having 

 the whole of the throat black, I have no doubt that it is a good 

 species, 51*
