This is a very rare Shrike. There is no date on the label, 
but Sir Evan James visited Tsi-tsi-ha on Sept. 20-23, 1886.

Iris dark brown ; bill and feet black. 
Some of the specimens of L. cristatus in the British 
Museum, and one or two of my Manchurian skins, have the 
grey on the forehead more pronounced than their fellows, 
and these might almost be said to intergrade with certain 
examples of L . lucionensis. With the abrasion of the 
plumage, L. cristatus certainly becomes greyer and more 
like L. lucionensis.

These two specimens are in very worn plumage, but 
I think that they may safely be referred to the present 
species.
