A single male specimen was collected for me by Mr. A. Chenncll in 

 the Naga Hills ; this is o£ a richer chestnut below than a specimen from 

 Darjiling. A female was obtained by Mr. Ogle at Sadiya. I give a de- 

 scription of the latter, that in Jerdon being taken from the male.

 beneath, all pale rufous buff. Under tail coverts white.

 has it 1-90.

I now possess two males and three females from Sadiya, two males 

 from the Munipur Hills, and one male from Sibsagar, Assam. Dr. Jerdon 

 only describes the male, the female apparently was unknown to him. I 

 therefore give one of a specimen sent me from Darjiling by Mr, L. Man- 

 delli.
