Allied in colour to H. coronata, but in size is smaller, and the four 
pairs of lateral tail-feathers are only tipped with white ; the casque, 
also, is much wider (as if inflated), and the black patch upon it is 
much smaller, appearing only on the extreme tip of the ridge, but 
spreading downward and backward over part of the middle of the 
upper mandible, which latter it never reaches in H. coronata; the 
cutting edges of both mandibles are also more or less black in 
H. alhirostris. In the female, the black patch is less defined, often 
occupying as much as half of the ridge of the casque, and extends 
even to occupy the tip of the upper mandible, while the cutting 
edges of both mandibles are also black. 
" Inhabits Bengal, Nepal, Assam, Sylhet, Arracan, and the Tenas- 
* This name is inadmissible, on account of this species not being found in 
Southern India.
