[Tonghoo {W. R.)\ Ye (D.). As Professor Schlegel (I. c.) gives Mr. 

 Blyth's title precedence, it may be accepted for the present. Further inves- 

 tigation may, however, show that Temminck and Schlegel's title was published 

 at an earlier date. The Report in which Mr. Elyth first described C. cinerea 

 was for March, 1842, but was only actually published with the Proceedings 

 of the A. S. B. for June, 1842.]
