The male is distinguished from the female by having the region of the ears deep 

 rufous ; and all the other male members of the genus display more or less rufous on 

 the ear-coverts. 



Luzon examples have the wings nearly half an inch longer than Sumatran and 

 Malaccan individuals in my collection. Otherwise no material difference is to be 

 observed.

Hob. Luzon {Jagor). 



A species belonging to that section of the genus of which C. francica may be con 

 sidered the type. It is the smallest of all the known species of that group, its dimen- 

 sions not exceeding those of C. fuciphaga (Thunb.)=C. lincld (Horsf.) A narrow, 

 well-defined, pure white band crosses the rump and constitutes its chief diiferential 

 character. 



tifty-sixth plate i'. referred to by the Messrs. Marshall, although Cuvier's title based thereon is made a 

 synonym of X. rosea. At least it is to be presumed that this is what is meant by Le barhu varbiclwn (instead 

 of barbichon), and by p. 56 instead of pi. 56 (Conf. Marshall, Monogr. Capitonidce, pi. 44). 

 ' I cannot find that the title Dendrochelidon, Boio, was published prior to 1832.
