In the first paper the author gives a full account ot M. phceoceps , M. 
badiosus, M. gu laris, M. brachyurus, M. fokiensis, M. holroydi, with a key. 
He disagrees with Hume’s statement (Sfcr. Feath. 1877, p. 472) that 
M. fokiensis from Foochow = M. brachyurus , and that M. holroydi from 
Hainan = M. phceoceps ; considering them respectively distinct. In the 
second paper he describes T. javensis , T . crawfurdi , T. fedcleni ( jerdoni ), 
T. hargitti [the nomenclature of these 4 appearing to have been more 
or less in a state of confusion], T. hoclgii, T. pectoralis , T. hodgsoni, 
T. richardsi , with a key.
