Adnlt male (autumn). Above broccoli-brown, washed with grey on head and neck, with 

 cinnamon on rump and upper tail-coverts; tail above brown with almost imperceptible 

 traces of small close bars; wings dusk}', the wing-coverts edged with the colour of 

 the back, but paler, the secondaries with whitish; forehead whitish grey; a long 

 siiperciliary stripe whitish; lores, subocular region and ear-coverts blackish; 

 under parts huffy white, washed with rufous buff on breast, sides, flanks and under 

 tail-coverts, darkest on the sides and flanks; under wing-coverts and inner 

 edges of quills almost pure white (Bohol, Philippines, (J', Oct. 1877, Everett — 

 O5406). 



L-is brown; bill horny brown, edged with whitish, lower mandible bluish or 

 fleshy white, terminal third horny brown ; legs and feet dull leaden blue, dull bluish, 

 or even greenish horny (Hume 14). 



Adnlt female (winter). Without the dark loral spot of the male, the under parts paler with 

 faint dark cross - venniculations on sides of neck, flanks and upper tail-coverts 

 (Gadow 29). 



In summer according to Dr. Gadow, the birds are less tinged with grey 

 above, and the female has the lores and ear-coverts browier than the male. 



Young. Above rufous brown, crossed with faint dark vermiculations ; ear-coverts and a small 

 spot in front of the eye dark brown; under-parts \vith crescentic markings of dark 

 brown on sides of neck, chest, flanks, vent and under tail-coverts (ex Legge, Gadow). 

 Colonel Legge (27) beUeves that the bars on the under surface do not vanish 

 for several years. In the male this disappearance seems to take place more quickly, 

 for Dr. Gadow shows tliat all the examples wthout cross-bars in the British Museum 

 — 12 in number — are males. As in the case of Laniiis tigrinm, it is probable 

 that only old females, if any, correspond perfectly with the adult male. A specimen 



1) "The specimen from Borneo, collected by Schwaner and called Enneoctonus schtvaneri by Bona- 

 parte is a true L. lucionmsi.i. The white superciliary streak is by no means absent, as Bonaparte says in 

 his short diagnosis, but merely hidden by the somewhat overhanging feathers of the crown" (Buttik. 3i). 



2; The spelling luzonensis is the right one, but as naturalists would perhaps not recognize lucionensis 

 and luzonensis as identical, we retain the wrong spelling of Brissou.
