Eu ? cristatus niger, gida juguloque rufo-albis ; fascia alarum 

 caudaque alba; medio dor si nifo. 



Crested black Eurylaimus ? with the throat and jugulum red- 

 white ; a white band on the wings and tail ; the middle of the 

 back black. 



Inhabits Sumatra. Length ten inches : remark- 

 able for its large and strong beak, with dilated sides ; 

 and for having the orbits and lores naked, and red : 

 all the upper parts of the plumage, the wings, and 

 tail, the cheeks, the belly, and vent are dull black : 

 the chin and all the fore part of the neck are reddish- 

 white : upon separating the feathers on the middle 

 of the back a large red spot becomes apparent, but as 

 these feathers have their outer edges black, when they 

 are in the natural situation this spot is invisible : a 

 broad white bar passes through all the quills ; the tail- 

 feathers have also a white band towards their tips : 

 the beak is black.
