Dicrurus cinerascens, Horsfield. “ Fowchow.” 
tHYPSiPETES, Vigors, n. s. From Pili-ling liills near Fowchow. 
Differs little from H. Maclellandii, Horsfield, but is darker on the 
hack and paler on the ventral region. 
Orioles chinensis, Gm. Distinct from 0. acrorhynciios, Vi- 
gors, which is common in the Canton district. 
Zosterops japonicus, Temminck and Schlegel. 
Anthus rtjeosuperciliaris, nohis, J. A. S. XXIX, 105. De- 
scribed from the Andaman islands and from Pegu. Two specimens 
from Amoy are decidedly of the same species ; but, evidently in 
breeding dress, have the entire throat and sides of the head dilute 
ferruginous. Most probably this species bears a prior and better 
appellation.

A small Accipiter, unlabelled, is probably from the Philippines 
(Lufon). It is in juvenile plumage, and appears to be referable to 
Acc. virgattts, (Tem.), mas ; but the tail-bands are narrower than 
usual, and the under-parts are whiter. 
The other Philippine species are — - 
Buceros panayensis, Scopoli, juv. 
Ceyx tridactyla, Gmelin, if not also of Scopoli ; nec apud Jerdon 
(111. hid. Orn.), which is C. purpurea, (Gm.), of India and Bur- 
ma ; nec apud Jardine and Selby (III. Orn.), which is C. rueidorsa, 
Strickland, of W. Malasia. Two other species of this beautiful little 
group exist in the C. lepida, Tem. (PI. Col. pi. 595, f. 1), and C. 
melanura, Kaup, — both from the Moluccas. If Sonnerat’s figure 
and description (Voy. a la Nouv. Guinee, p. 67,) refer truly to this
