566. Eeguloides chloeonotus, var. Hodgson. 



This form was very common in the opener forests on the slopes of the 

 Burr ail range. 



W. 1-85", T. 1-35", t. 7'', Bf. 0-25". 



It is very similar to chloronotus, but the band on rump in my three 

 skins is nearly white.- 



574. ABEOEifis FLAViYENTEis, Jerdon. 

 From the Garo Hills ; one specimen only. 



578. Abeoenis castai^-eoceps, Hodgson. 



This pretty little Abrornis I saw several times in the Naga Hills when 

 the forest was pretty open, and I shot a specimen at the head of the Iril 

 valley in Munipur ; I believe it has only been previously procured in Nipal 

 and Sikkim. 



Description. Crown of head dark chesnut with some darker feathers 

 towards nape, which is dark ash. Back grassy green, upper tail-coverts pale 

 yellow ; centre tail feathers pale dusky brown, the two outer white with a 

 dusky edging on the terminal frds. of their length. Wing grass green, the 

 coverts tipped yellow forming one distinct and lower band and one indistinct 

 •upper one. Beneath, chin and breast bluish white. Flanks, inside shoulder of 

 wing, belly and under tail-coverts canary -yellow. Bill above dark brown, 

 below orange ; legs olive brown.

588«. Enicueus Lechenaultii, Temm. = Chinensis, Gould. 



This bird was given to me by Capt. Badgley of the Topographical 

 Survey, who shot it in the Lushai Hills in company with G. wimaculatus. 

 Obtaining this species in this locality so far west is very interesting, and 

 marks its extreme limit on the Indian side. 



Length about 10", W. 4-2", T. 5-8", t. 1-28", Bf. 0-9". 



The measurements of the Hill Tipperah E. immaculatus^ Hodgson, are — 



Length about 8", W. 36", T. 4-9", t. I'l", Bf. 0-61".

 On the upper Barak river, in February, a pair were shot.
