APPENDIX. 
44. Sturnopastor JALLA, Gray. 
Fairly common in the plains. Not noticed in the mountains near Tosari. 
Iris yellow ; hill dirty brownish white ; hare skin round eye orange-yellow ; legs yellow. 
45. Eucichla cyanura (Cab.). 
Fairly common in the coffee-plantations near Lawang, where the absence of undergrowth allows of 
free movement. The sexes apparently separate during certain seasons, as in one plantation I could only 
meet with males, while in another more distant I procured females in numbers. This species takes to the 
lower branches of trees when alarmed. The note is “ quer-r-r-r,’ J the last r’s being sounded quickly. 
These Pittas, and many other birds shot near Lawang, had numbers of long, flat, white worms under the 
skin, especially about the thigh-joints ; these worms were rolled up in round discs. 
Iris and bill black ; legs lead-grey. 
Javanese “ Punglor.” 
46. Picus analis, Horsf. 
Seen several times near Tosari. 
Iris dark hazel. 
47. Alcedo meninting, Horsf. 
Obtained near Lawang. 
48. Halcyon omnicolor (Temm.) . 
Only one specimen seen and obtained near Lawang. 
49. Halcyon chloris, Gray. 
Java specimens are decidedly bluer than those met with in Borneo. Common in the lowlands. 
50. Ceyx rufidorsa (Strickl.). 
Lawang. 
51. Merops PHIL1PPINUS, L. 
Very common in the plains. 
Eye lake-red. 
52. Merops quinticolor, Hodgs.

53. XanthoL/EMA australis, Horsf. 
Obtained in the vicinity of Lawang. 
Eye and bill black ; feet (horny) green. 
54. Xanthol^ema rosea, Horsf. 
Lawang. 
Eye and bill black ; feet vermilion. 
Native name “ Koekol.” 
55. Megaljema jayanensis, Gray. 
A few were seen, in company with AT. rosea, feeding on the jungle-fruits in the high trees. This 
Barbet has a loud “ booh-booh-booh ” note, which may be heard all day long in the forest. The 
Javanese say that it kills small birds, but this is of course most improbable. 
Eye and bill black ; feet olive-green. 
56 Chrysococcyx basalis (Shelley). 
One specimen obtained near Tosari. 
57. CoCOMANTIS MERULINUS (Scop.). 
Near Tosari I obtained a specimen of this species.
