 manner, except that the head is marked by a 

 black horse-shoe-shaped patch or cowl, passing 

 from eye to eye over the crown : the forehead 

 being yellow: the wing-coverts are also yellow 

 instead of black, and the bill is of the same colour; 

 the legs black. Inhabits China and Cochinchina, 

 and is figured in the Planches Enlumine^s, No.

INDIAN ORIOLE. 



This is the Chlorio Indicus of Aldrovandus, and 

 differs but little from the last mentioned^ except 

 that the horse-shoe patch on the head is blueish, 

 and the black longitudinal spots on the wings, as 

 well as the transverse bar of the tail, which is^ 

 yellow, are of that colour. Native of the East 

 Indies.
