1859.] Itinerary in the district of Amherst, Tenasserim. 458 



superciliary band of white passing down sides of neck and nearly 

 surrounding the occiput. Greatest secondary coverts white with black 

 bases, the white extended along outer margins of 3 als. Remiges

 deeply tipt black, which extends laterally, till it occupies nearly all 

 the outermost web. All under and anteal parts milk white. 



This is one of the smallest known species of true Flycatcher. A pair 

 were flitting from bush to bush, settling generally on the summits. 

 The female, which appeared brown and white, escaped.

Details. Are those of Ctjlicipeta, (Blyth), but it lacks the mesial 

 light stripe along the crown. If that indeed be a distinction from a 

 Wood-wren that I sent to the Society's museum in 1855, agreeing 

 to my thinking with Ctjlicipeta triyirgata, (Temminck). It was 

 named by Mr. Blyth Phylloscoptjs yiridipenels (u. sp.),f although 

 it had the coronal stripe prominently. The present subject has a 

 considerably grosser bill than the last named, or than Ph. afeinis, 

 (mihi) ; and so wide basally as to be almost Muscicapine. 



Color. Iris sepia. Bill blackish horn, reddish at edges. Legs 

 fleshy horn. Head olive darkened with ash : auriculars paler and 

 greenish. Abroad dull white supercilum. Chin and throat white, 

 and all the rest of under-parts pure gamboge-yellow. Upper parts 

 olive-green; pure and yellowish. Remiges and rectrices dusky 

 brown, edged green. Lining of wings sulphur-yellow. Inner webs 

 at ends of three outermost pairs of rectrices margined sand colour.
