1863.] Proceedings of the Asiatic Society. 75 
rowing into the hill-side (soft laterite), along deep road-cuttings near 
Maulmein.) 
Me@anarMa Inpica, (Latham). Common here and there; but 
in general less so than M. tryeara, (Vieillot), the voice of which is 
quite similar to that of M. caniceps, (Franklin). 
MULLERIPICUS PULVERULENTUS, (Tem.). ‘Shan hills E. of Ava. 
Very noisy. Only met with once, in a small flock of five or six, at a 
height of about 2,000 ft., in the Shan hills, east of Ava.” 
Muitmriricus Frpprnt, Blanford. (M. savensts of Burma, 
auctorum.) Differs from M. savunsis, (Horsf. v. lewcogaster, Tem.,) 
of the Malay countries, by its white rump; in which it resembles 
M. Hopasont, Jerdon, of Malabar: while the extent of slightly 
buffy-white colouring on the inside of the wing is greatly increased 
occupying the basal half of the remiges. In M. Hopeut, nobis, of the 
Andaman islands, the plumage is wholly black, with the exception of 
the usual crimson marks on the head. In other respects, these 
four races bear a near resemblance to each other. 
Picus Buanrorpr, nobis, 2. s. Very like P. MAWRATTENSIS of 
India ; but the white markings generally more developed, as especially 
shewn on the wings and tail. It is just barely separable as a race. 
GECINUS VIRIDANUS, nobis. “ From banks of Irawadi.” I observed 
if numerously in Martaban, as also G. OCCIPITALIS, (Vigors). 
G. Cutoropus, (Vieillot). ‘ From the same place as the PuUL- 
VERULENTUS.” 
TIGA INTERMEDIA, nobis. “ From Thayet Myo, where notvery rare.” 
I obtained both this and the preceding species on the Salwin, and 
also in the forests of Upper Martaban. In the same habitat, the dimi- 
nutive Prous MOLUCCENSIS (var. canicapillus, nobis) abounded ; and 
I obtained Hmmticircus CANENTE, (Lesson), at the base of lime- 
stone hills along the Salwin. 
CUCULUS TENUIROSTRIS, Gray. “Near Ava.” Likewise obtained 
by myself: as also C. canornus at Moulmein, in immature plumage ; 
C. HIMALAYANUS in Upper Martaban; C. striatus, Drapiez, plenti- 
fully in the rainy season, when very musical, on the hills near Maul- 
mein; ©. varius at Maulmein; and Crrsococerx (Trogon macu- 
latus of Brown’s Illustrations) once at Maulmein. 
HARPACTES ERYTHROCEPHALUS, Gould. A particularly fine 
pair.
