Muscicapince and the Fluvicolince. But this diffi- 
culty we are now about to remove. It has happened,, 
most fortunately for our present purpose, that the 
industry of modem naturalists have transmitted to 
Europe, from different and remote localities, every 
one of those which we consider the primary types of 
the Eurylamidw; so that we shall now venture, after 
patiently waiting several years fo? this event, to 
submit to the public our elucidation of the whole 
group. All the species yet discovered of this sub- 
family we accordingly arrange under one or other of 
the following divisions, which we shall distinguish 
as Cymbirhynchus , Eurylaimus , Serilophus, Psari- 
soma, and Platystoma. It will subsequently appear 
that these are types of genera, and we shall now 
give the distinguishing characters of each in detail. 
The genus, named by Mr. Vigors, 
CYMBIRHYNCHUS, 
is represented by the Todus nasutus of the old 
ornithologists, and it differs in several remarkable 
particulars from all its congeners. The hill is not 
only broad but high, so that when viewed in profile 
it seems to belong to a conirostral bird ; the under 
mandible is consequently strong, and almost as
