PASSERES. 
a Nepal {B. H. Hodgson 283) 1845. — b S. India (“ Musci- 
peta paradisi” T. G. Jerdon) 1850. 
The locality “S. India” assigned to b is open to doubt. The 
specimen agrees accurately with Jerdon’s description of this species. 
700. Terpsiphone melanogaster. 
Muscipeta melanogaster , Sw. B. W. Afr. ii. p. 55. 
a W. Africa {Askew) 1837. — b W. Africa {Sir W. Jar dine) 
1842. — c. 
These specimens agree with examples in the Swainson collection, 
probably the types of the species. 
701. Terpsiphone rufiventer. 
Muscipeta rufiventer , Sw. B. W. Afr. ii. p. 53, pi. 4. 
a {N. G. Strickland) 1838. — b W. Africa {W. Kirtland) 
1843. — c W. Africa {Gardner) 1846. 
702. Terpsiphone cristata. 
Muscicapa viridis (!) Mull. Natursyst. Suppl. p. 171. 
Muscicapa cristata , Gm. Syst. Nat. i. p. 398. 
Tchitrea cristata , Layard, B. S. Afr. p. 145. 
Muscipeta perspicillata, Sw. B. W. Afr. ii. p. 60. 
a Cape of Good Hope {N. G. Strickland) 1838. — b S. Africa 
{N. G. Strickland) 1838. — c S. Africa {Dewgard) 1849. — d 
{Argent) 1852. 
Jules Yerreaux, apparently recognizing specimen a as having 
been skinned by himself, wrote across the label in 1870 “tue par 
J. Yerreaux au Knysa, 1827.” Muller’s name for this species is 
utterly inadmissible. 
703. Terpsiphone incii. 
Tchitrea incei, “ Gould,” Horsf. & Moore, Cat. B. E. I. Co. 
Mus. p. 392. 
a Malacca {Johnson) 1837. — b Malacca {Matthew) 1840. 
— c Malacca ( Williams) 1847. — d {Williams). 
c seems certainly to belong to this species, but I am not so sure 
as regards a , b , & d. The latter are all female or immature birds, 
and my materials are insufficient to determine them satisfactorily.
