129. TurDUS NAUMANNI. 
‘‘T have obtained this species for the first time this year. 
It agrees exactly with my Shanghai specimen.” No bird 
sent. He had his Shanghai specimen to identify it with; so 
I think we can fairly enter it. 
130. CaLaAMODYTA INSULARIS, Wallace. 
A female of this Moluccan migrant received. Passes north 
to breed. 
131. ARUNDINAX BLAKISTONI, sp. nov. Plate VIII. fig. 1. 
Upper parts brownish olive; underparts dusky vellowish, 
on sides of breast brownish olive; a yellowish olive super- 
cilium ; wing olive-brown, margined paler; tail brown, with 
whitish tips; axillaries pale yellowish, with blackish mot- 
tlings; dingier on yellow under tail-coverts. Upper man- 
dible brownish, with yellowish edges; under yellowish, with 
brownish tip; legs and lores yellowish brown. Length 
4-7, wing 2°7, tail 2-1, tarse °85, first quill -48, second 
‘15 shorter than third, narrow, 1°4 shorter than fourth, or 
longest. 
This is like a miniature A. fasciolatus, Gray ; and I took it 
at first for Salvadori’s A. dorie; but Mr. Sharpe has lately 
figured the latter m ‘The Ibis’ (1876, p. 41) from Borneo, 
showing that Salvadori’s species is nothing more than the 
Locustella ochotensis, Midd.,=L. rubescens, Blyth. 
Blakiston adds, “I have two specimens similar to Cala- 
modyta maacki; but they differ from one another too much. 
Unfortunately the specimen I sent you in 1873 was lost; and 
I must therefore keep these till I get duplicates.” 
He further states, “I have also one specimen of what I 
take to be Locustella subcerthiola; but the typical specimen 
that. you identified was also lost in the ‘ Ariel.’” This may at 
once he recognized from its resemblance to Savi’s Warbler, 
Lusciniopsis savit. 
132. PHyLLoscorpus xANTHODRYAS, Swinh. ? 
‘I have a specimen of Willow-Wren which is much larger 
than all my others. I put it down as distinct. It measures 
D$x 2%, ¢. General appearance of P. coronata, but more
