 Blue-cheeked Curucui. Shaw's Zool. VII. 7. 



The blue-cheeked Barbet is common in Bengal, less so in Orissa, 

 and I have not seen a specimen at Juanpore. Mr. Smith well observes 

 of it, that " It has a singular habit when perched of bowing the head, 

 accompanying each motion with a single note resembling the word 

 * hoo.' It has two broods, the one in the month of May, the other in 

 November." — MS. Notes. 



126, 127, 128. Bucco Indicus, — Indian Barbet. 

 The first specimen presented by M. Bouchez. The others shot by 

 the Curator, and mounted in the Museum.
