20. Otocompsa emeria: ‘The Bengal Red- 
whiskered Bulbul. (F. 288), (J. 460), (II.) 
Found in Northern and Eastern India, and 
Burma. (Illus. B. P., p. 230; also B. C., 
p- 26.) 
21. Otocompsa fuscicaudata: ‘The Southern 
Red-whiskered Bulbul. (F. 289), (J. 460), (II.) 
Found chiefly in the south-western portion 
of India, more especially in the hills. This is 
the common bulbul of all our South-Indian 
hill stations. 
This species is distinguishable from Emeria 
in that it has a complete collaret. In Emeria 
the black collaret is interrupted in front. 
Both the Molpastes and the Otocompsa bul- 
buls build neat cup-shaped nests in trees and 
shrubs in gardens. Not infrequently they 
nest in plants growing in pots placed in the 
verandah. (Illus. B. D., p. 296; also B. B., 
p- 87.) 
22. Pycnonotus luteolus: ‘The White-browed 
Bulbul. (F. 305), (J. 452), (- IL)
