.Munia jagori Martens. 
This species was noted near Tibiao and Culasi ; four specimens 
were preserved at the latter locality. 
A nest of Munia jagori, containing five slightly incubated eggs, 
was found near Culasi on May 23. The nest is large considering 
the size of the bird; it is nearly spherical, with a diameter of 
about 15 centimeters. The entrance is a hole 2.5 centimeters in 
diameter above the center on one side and is slightly protected 
by a roof of grass. The nest is so deep that it is difficult to 
remove the eggs except with the aid of a spoon. The entire 
nest is composed of grasses — fine grass inside and broad grass 
leaves outside. 
The eggshells are smooth and dull ; they are white and without 
. markings. Their measurements in millimeters are 16.4 by 11.9, 
14.4 by 11.2, 15.0 by 11.4, 15.5 by 11.9, and 15.0 by 11.1.
