The position of this genus is by no means established. Blyth 
(Cat. Calc. Mus. p. 194), without assigning it to any Family, places 
it between the Ampelidce and Eurylcemidce, at the same time suggest- 
ing its alliance with Pterythrius. Jerdon places it in the Liotrichince. 
By other writers it has been classed with the Ampelidce (Gray), Cam- 
pephagidee (Bp. & Wallace), Dicruridce (Bp.), and Sturnidce (Sundevall). 
In placing the genus here I follow Jerdon. Strickland’s specimen is 
but a fragment.
