Cryptolopha nigTorum Moseley. 



My only specimen of this bird was taken at Baguio, Mountain 

 Province, Luzon, on May 10, 1914. It is a male. (No. 996.) 



Cryptolopha mindanensis Hartert. 



I have a male of this little vv^arbler, taken at Sumilao, Bukid-

Eumyias nigrimentalis (Grant).

 female at Bondog Point, Tayabas Province. (No. 1095.)

One specimen, a female, is in my collection, taken at Mailag,

 forest at the foot of a range of hills. (No. 1247.) 



Zosterornis whitehead! Grant. 



Whitehead's tree babbler is common at Baguio, Benguet Sub- 

 province, Luzon, and strangely enough occurs on Mount Bana-

 somewhat distinguishable from the average northern bird by
