t Published by an oversight without description or reference, owing to non- 
appearance of Nov. Bull. B.O.C. Mr. La Touche tells me the Chinese bird has 
the 2 long crest feathers when fully adult, and Mr. Sclater (MS.) says that a Hainan 
bird in the Brit. Mus. has them. I therefore omit this as a character and retain 
the form tentatively on size alone.
