" Inhabits all northern India, visiting the plains during the cold 
season, when it is not rare in the vicinity of Calcutta. On the 
eastern side of the Bay of Bengal, it extends southward to the 
Tenasserim provinces." — (Blyth, J. A. S. Beng. XYI. p. 128.) 
" Arrives in the neighbourhood of Mussooree in April, and breeds 
in June, on the 13th of which month I took a nest from a hole in a 
bank by the roadside in a retired and unfrequented situation ; I 
afterwards found another nest in a hole of a rock, also in a retired 
spot. The elevation was about 5,000 feet. Externally the nest is 
composed of green moss, and lined with black fibrous lichens like 
hair. The eggs are four in number, of a dull and pale olive-green, 
faintly or indistinctly clouded with duU rufous or clay colour. 
Diameter, ^ x in. The male has a very pleasing song, which 
he warbles forth from the midst of some thick bush, seldom exposing 
itself to view, like Stoparola melanops, which delights to perch upon 
Bome high exposed twig." — (Hutton, J. A. S. Beng. XYII. pt. 2,
