367, 363. Stoparola Blyth, 1836, as the generic name for these flycatchers 
is invalidated by previous use: but Stoporala Blyth, 1845, is available 
(vide Oberhols2r, Proc. Biol. Soc. Washington, 32, 1919, p. 47) 
369, 570. Of the Catecpillar-Shrikes, which must now be called 
Coracina instead of Graucalus or Artamides, the following species are wrongly 
attributed by Vorderman to Sumatra, viz., 182 Artamides bicolor Temm., 185 
Graucalus Javensis Horsf., 187 Graucalus striatus Bodd. 
574. Pericrocotus peregrinus Must stand as Pericrocotus cinnamo- 
meus. Laiubmann has shown (Ornith. Monatsber. XXXI,~1923, p. 4o), that 
both names apply to the same species and the latter his page priority. 
The reference is Motacilla cinnamomea Linn. Syst. Nat. i, 1766, p 335. Ceylon 
(Svn. Parus malabavicus Gm, Syst. Nat. i, 1789, p. tor2, Malabar). 
387. Ixos Temmiock, is a perfectly valid genus with type Ixos virescens 
Temm. (Pl. Col., 1825, livr. 64, pl. 382, fig. 1) and must be used instead of 
Hemixus. 
390. Oberholser has named the bird of Jimaja Id, Anambas Group, S. 
China Sea, Iole olivacea crypta (Proc. Biol. Soc. Washington, 31, 918, p. 
197.) He states that the form also occurs in Sumatra but we are unable to 
separate the examples we have seen from that island from the typical race. 
398. Sumatran representatives of Tricholestes criniger are inter- 
mediate between Malayan and Bornean birds and Miller's name, published by 
Blyth, is available for them. It is possible, however, that Setoynis criniger 
Lesson, an undetermined name, is based on this bird (Rev. Zool. 1839, p. 167. 
Sumatra) in which case it has priority over all others. The three races would 
then have to stand as Setornts c. crinigey Less. (Sumatra), S.c. minutus (Hartl.) 
Malay Peninsula, S. c. viridis (Bp.) Borneo. 
408. Molpastes aurigaster aurigaster. An introduced species 
but now fairly common wherever Javanese immigrants have settled in any 
numbers. 
431. We have not included Horizillas rufifrons (Cabanis), based 
on material from ‘‘ Java or Sumatra,’’ in our list. It has not been met with by 
recent collectors and we believe that all birds recorded as coming from 
Sumatra have been wrongly attributed to the island, or that they are perhaps 
examples of H. cinerea (Eyton) which have been wrongly determined. Neither 
do we believe that it inhabits Borneo or Pulau Laut. The species is almost 
certainly one of those which occur in South-eastern Indo-China and again in 
Java only. It may be considered as replaced in the Malay Peninsula, Sumatra 
and Borneo by Horizillas cinerea. 
436. Though Alcippe poioicephala pyrrhoptera (Bp.) has been 
assigned to Sumatra and birds, presumably thence, have been named Alcippe 
solitaria by Cabanis, we donot believe is the occurrence of the speices. All 
records are based on material obtained by early travellers, such as Miller, 
and are probably wrongly localised: no examples are included is the large 
collections made in the island in recent years. 
454. We have omitted from our list Bvrachypteryx flaviventris Salvad., 
Ann. Mus. Civ. Genova XIV, 1879. p. 226, based on a single female from 
Mt. Singealang. We cannot place this bird. 
466. Vorderman records (Nat. Tyd. Ned. Ind. li, 1891, p. 235) Geo- 
cichla rubiginosa S. Mill.,=Gceocichla pevonti (Vieill.), from Sumatra and 
Malacca. This bird is confined to Timor and the neighbouring islands and we 
do not know what species is referred to. 
485. We do not believe is the occurrence of Orthotomus sepium 
sepium Horsf. in Sumatra. The Sumatran birds referred by Temminck t. 
this form in Planches Colories Livr. 101, are examples of O. s. cinevaceus Blyth. 
486. Cisticola juncidis cursitans. Streseman has shown (Journ. of 
Ornith, 1922, p. 128) that the species name ‘cisticola Temm. is antedated by 
juncidis (Rafinesque). 
541. Laubmann shows (Ornith. Monatsber. XXX, 1922, p. 89), that 
Pallas’ name for this wagtail, Wotacilla meianope, 1776, is ‘antedated by uaa of 
S. G. Gmelin, Parus caspica, 1774.
