The common bulbul of South India, as far 
North as Lucknow. (Illus. B. D., p. 296; also

(II.) 
The common bulbul of the Frontier

races of red-vented bulbuls meet they inter- 
breed, so that at Lucknow and other points of 
junction it is not possible to assign the local 
bulbuls to any of the above species. | 
19. Molpastes leucotis: ‘The White-eared 
Bulbul. (F. 285), (J. 459), (-II.)
