I FOUND the Muscicapa Banyumas only in one province of Java, which is 

 designated by the specific name applied to it in the Systematic Arrangement of 

 Birds from that Island. The natives distinguish it by a denomination — Chiching- 

 goleng — which is also given to the most melodious of the Javanese Thrushes.
