"Very abundant at Tavai ; and though I never heard it at Moulmein, 

 its familiar voice saluted me on the first night of my arrival at Tounghoo " 

 {Mason). 



[Karen hills {L.); Tonghoo (W. R.); Thayet Myo (0.); Pahpoon, 

 Kyouknyat, Amherst {!>■)■ Until comparison has been made with Sumatraa 

 examples, it will be best to retain the title of the Ceylon species, N. Mrsutus, 

 for the Burman Ninox.~\

 this species apparently replaces the 8. oecellatum of India, and it is "con- 

 stantly found in Burma." 



[Thayet Myo (F.). Identical with Malaccan examples. 8. sinensis, 

 Lath., founded on Sonnerat's Hibou de la Chine (Voy. Indes, ii. p. 185), can 

 hardly refer to this owl.]

This should be the Burmese race, as it occurs at Malacca, as well

 and suspects that " if the Nipal and Nilgiri birds be distinct, the Burmese, 

 Kumaon, Simla, and Kotegurh birds are intermediate between these two."*
