A fine collection of passerine birds, collected by Mr. H. Orii in Yunnan 

 Province, China, during the years 1910-191 1 and owned by Mr.T. Kobayashi 

 of Yokohama, was placed in our hands for examination. We have referred 

 the specimens to 39 genera and 146 species. Of the latter number, 46 are 

 species which have not hitherto been recorded from Yunnan. Mr. Collingr 

 wood Ingram, in his paper on "The birds of Yunnan"*, has given 352 species 

 as then known from that province, so that the number is now brought up 

 to 398. 



In the present collection we find none which seems to be new to science, 

 except a form of Antlms maculatus previously known from Yunnan and 

 Formosa and to which we are inclined to give subspecific rank under the 

 appellation A. maculatus yunnanensis. 



We let follow notes on the new subspecies just mentioned and on the- 

 46 species new to the avifauna of Yunnan.
