 Gal. des Ois. t. 18 ; PL Col. 97. 



Malayan Peninsula, Sumatra, Java, Borneo. Obtained by Heifer, pro- 

 bably in Mergui province (specimen in Calcutta Museum). In the north 

 of Arakan, R. melanoleueus, nobis,* will most probably be found to occur, as 

 it has been obtained in the province of Kachar. 

 [Meeta Myo (Davison).'] 



*17. Baza lophotes (J. 58). 

 Arakan, Tenasserim, Malacca. 



18. Perots PTn,OBH~YircHus (J. 57). 



A long-crested specimen received from Mergui, and described as P. 

 brachypterus.j Its primaries were not fully grown. Mr. A. 0. Hume 

 notes it from Burma and Siam. 



[Tonghoo (W. R.), Thayet Myo (F. and 0.)] 



*19. Elahtts melanoptektjs (J. 59). 



Arakan, Tenasserim. "Various localities in British Burma" (A. 0. 

 Sume).

Common in Arakan, if correctly identified, as is most probable. The 

 nearly allied but smaller race, with shorter crest, S. bacha (Daudin) ; Fako 

 bido, Horsfield ; ScBmatomis spilogaster, nobis ; S. elgini, Tytler, inhabits 

 the Andamans, South India, and Ceylon, as also Malacca and Java ; and, 

 according to Messrs. Swinhoe and Gurney, is an intermediate race. 



[Tonghoo {W.R.); Thayet Myo (F.). S. elgini, Tytler, is undoubtedly 

 a distinct species. Nor can I agree to unite S. spilogaster with S. bacha. 

 At Kalee Gunge Dr. Day obtained an adult bird, in the rich brown plumage 

 of true S. baeha.] 



21. S. ETJTHEEFOEDI. 



S. rutherfordi, Swinhoe, Ibis, 1870, p. 85. 



Has been procured in the vicinity of Eangoon, in Siam, and Hainan. 

 [Said by Mr. Hume to have been obtained near Tonghoo. Neighbour- 

 hood of Amherst and Te {!>.).]
