Major II. J. Kelsall on 



Pycnonotus barbatus. 



Very common^ especially about gardens^ cultivated ground, 

 and low open bush. It goes about frequently in parties of 

 three. When perched it has a habit of raising the feathers 

 of the forehead and crown so as to present the appearance 

 of a slight crest. 



Irides reddish brown ; bill, legs, and feet black. 



Family Campophagid.1;. 

 Coracina aznrea. 

 I only saw this species on rare occasions. 



Campophaga phoenicea. (Text-fig. 1.) 



Appears to be migratory, at any rate partially,. I seldom 

 saw it during the dry weather, but during the rains it was 

 fairly common. 



Irides dark brown ; bill, legs, and feet black.

Campophaga plicenicea. 



A. Bill seen from below. 

 B. Head showing the fleshy excrescence at the g'ape. 



The male has a curious fleshy excrescence of a pink colour 

 at the gape which is not apparent in the dried skin. 



Campophaga quiscalina. 

 Eare. 



Family Muscicapid^. 



Stizorhina finschi. 



Two specimens were obtained in dense bush near Mayeppa. 

 I was attracted by a call I did not know, and following it 

 up, I obtained one bird, and the following day got a second.
