Mr. Keay sends a male and two females of this Cuckoo- 
Shrike. He tells me that this bird is found only in the 
mountains, where it is fairly common and nests in lofty 
trees. The native name is “ Uliac.” Even this slight 
information may be useful, inasmuch as little appears to be 
known regarding the habits of this species.

Mr. Keay says that this species is not common in his district 
of Negros, and that the native name, and its note, is u Puc- 
puc.” Though this bird appears to have a wide range over 
the islands, it has only been recently discovered in Negros.
