Tue red-armed Squirrel approaches very nearly to the Sciwrus annulatus of authors, but 1s distinguishable by its richer colouring. The general tint of Scirus annulatus might be described as yellowish-grey, whilst that of the present animal is dark rusty-grey ; and especially by the bright rust-like tint of the under side of the limbs, and the pale rust or rusty-white colour of the belly. ‘The heel is clothed with hair. | | Judging from the skull, the present species must be much larger than the Scirus annulatus. Its form is nearly the same, but the nasal portion is narrower and more elongated, and the post- orbital processes are considerably larger in proportion. On this plate has been figured “a cultivated medicinal plant (Barleria prionites) from the Dukhun, where it is called ‘ Pewlee Koruntee’ by the Mahrattas. The leaves of the Yellow Koruntee are used to rub the teeth and gums with; being supposed to possess an antiseptic, strengthening, and astringent quality.” This has also been copied from one of Colonel Sykes drawings. Habitat, the island of Fernando Po, western coast of Africa. The fur of this Squirrel is moderately long, rather harsh, each hair is annulated with black and yellow; the under surface of the body is dirty yellow, with a slight rufous tinge; the hinder por- tions of the fore legs, red; tail long, each hair being annulated with black and white or yellowish- white, and adorned at the base with reddish; ears, small; the incisors have a slight groove longitudinally. | Length of the head and body, eight inches and a half; tail, ten inches and a half. MANTIS MOUILTIS CUTE. MANIS MULTISCUTATA. Many-scaLtep Mants. Manis Multiscutata, Gray, Proc. Zool. Soc. p. 22, 1848. ae 5 Fraser, Proc. Zool. Soc. p. 538, 1843. Tuts species of Manis is at once distinguished from the Manis tetradactyla (which it most nearly approaches) by its having the tail rattier’ shorter,—that is, about half as long again as the body,—and double the number of series of scales on the body, and also by the scales being more acute, and furnished each with three sharp points. During my short residence at Fernando Po, I succeeded in procuring two living specimens of this animal. The individuals, judging from the bones, were evidently not adult; the largest measured thirty inches in length, of which the head and body were twelve inches, and the tail eighteen inches. I kept them alive for about a week at Fernando Po, and allowed them the range of a room, where they fed upon a small black ant, which is very abundant and troublesome in the houses and elsewhere. Even when first procured they displayed little or no fear, but continued to climb about the room without noticing my occasional entrance. They would climb up the some- what roughly hewn square posts, which supported the building, with great facility, and upon reaching the ceiling would return head foremost; sometimes they would roll themselves up into a ball and throw themselves down, and apparently without experiencing any inconvenience from the fall, which was in a measure broken upon reaching the ground by the semi-yielding scales, which were thrown into an erect position by the curve of the body of the animal. In climbing, the tail, with its strongly-pointed scales beneath, was used to assist the feet; and the grasp of the hind feet, assisted by the tail, was so powerful that the animal would throw the body back (when on the post), as represented in the drawing, into a horizontal position, and sway itself to and fro, apparently taking pleasure in this kind of exercise. It always slept with the body rolled up; and when in this position in a corner of the building, owing to the position and strength of the scales and the power of the limbs combined, I found it impossible to remove the animal against its will, the points of the scales being inserted into every little notch and hollow of the surrounding objects. The eyes are very dark hazel, and very prominent. The colonial name for this species of Manis is “ Attadillo,” and it is called by the Boobies, the natives of the island, “Gahlah.” The flesh is said to be exceeding good eating, and is in great request among the natives. Habitat, the island of Fernando Po, western coast of Africa. In the back ground is an “ economical tree (Caryota urens) called “Marh’ by the Mahrattas. The juice of the ‘ Marh’ is extracted, allowed to ferment, and 1s drank as ‘ Tarry’ is drank. From the ‘ Marh’ it is called ‘ Marhee.’ The ‘ Marh’ is seldom seen far from the Ghauts. There are one or two trees at Poona, and one or two at Bombay. It is common in the Mawuls, but not so in the Desh or Konkun.” It is copied from one of Colonel Sykes’ drawings. ORIOLUS KUNDOO. ORIOLUS KUNDOO. SYKES ORIOLE. Oriolus Kundoo, Syxs, Proc. Comm. Sei. & Corr. Zool. Soc. p. 87, 1832. Tue bird here represented is given as a species on the authority of Colonel Sykes, and drawn from a specimen contained in that gentleman’s collection. Colonel Sykes remarks that it is of the size of our Golden Oriole, and wrt resembling the female of that bird; but the bill is always very dark brown, and the irides reddish-brown instead of lake. The sexes are alike. Habitat, Dukhun. The upper parts of the body are greenish-yellow; the rump, the sides of the body, the inner webs and tips of the tail feathers, bright yellow; the wings are olive-brown ; the under parts of the body are dirty white, with brown stripes down the centres of the feathers. —— eg Hy PETROCGCINGLA PANDOO. Duxuun Rock Turuvusu. Petrocincla Pandoo, Syxes, Proc. Comm. Sci. & Corr. Zool. Soc. p. 87, 1882. According to Colonel Sykes, this bird differs from the Solitary Thrush of Europe ( T'urdus cyaneus, Linn.) in its smaller size, slighter form, brighter cerulean tint, and in the want of orange eyelids and white tips to the feathers. It is only found in the dense woods of the Ghauts. The flight is low and rapid. It appears to correspond with Var. A. of Dr. Latham’s Solitary Thrush, vol. v. p. 47. The drawing is made from a specimen in Colonel Sykes’ collection. Habitat, Dukhun. The general colour of this bird is brownish-blue ; the wing and tail feathers brownish ; rides, brown. PSITTAGCUS GUILDINGII. GUILDING Ss PaRRoT. Psittacus Guildingiv, Vicors, Proc. Zool. Soc. p. 80, 1836. TuE specimens upon which Mr. Vigors originally founded this beautiful species of Parrot, were contained in the collection of the late Rev. Lansdown Guilding, which was transmitted to this country after his decease, and the greater portion of it purchased by the Zoological Society of London, in whose museum one of the specimens of this bird still exists. The branch upon which the bird is represented as resting is that of a cultivated fruit (Annona reticulata), which attains the height of forty or fifty feet ; it is called by the Mahrattas “ Ram Thul,” and was copied from one of Colonel Sykes’ drawings. Habitat, St. Vincent. The crown of the head of this bird is whitish; the back of the head and cheeks are yellow; the occiput and ears are blue; the neck is green; the back and lesser wing-coverts are brown; the greater wing-coverts, bronze green; a band of deep orange crosses many of the primaries and secondaries, which forms a mere spot when the wing is closed; the terminal portions of the primaries are a brownish-black ; while in the corresponding parts of the secondaries the outer webs are dark blue, and the inner webs black; the tertiaries are brownish-green; all the feathers of the neck and back are edged with black; the basal portion of the tail is orange ; on the upper surface it is succeeded by a broad band of blue, shaded with green ; but on the under surface this band is green, and the terminal portion, which is about one-third, is yellow ; the under surface of the body is brown; the thighs are green ; bill, white. | Total length, seventeen and a half inches. ‘ied ifs iri . : iS lt ty GOLOBUS URSINUS. Ursine Conosus. Colobus Ursinus, OcmBy, Proc. Zool. Soc. 1835, p. 98. 5 » OweEN (Anatomy), Proc. Zool. Soc. 1841, p. 84. Aurnoucn the Colobus here figured is considered by many Naturalists to be identical with the Full-bottom Monkey of Pennant’s Hist. of Quad. (3rd edit.) vol. i. p. and pl. 212, I still think there are sufficient differences to guarantee it a place in the present publication, under its more recent appellation. The specimen from which the accompanying figure was taken, had been presented, in the year 1841, to the Society by the Right Honourable the Earl of Derby, and lived for some time in the Menagerie. ) When at Sierra Leone, I saw this specimen, in the possession of Mr. Whitfield, by whom it was brought to this country, at which time I made the following notes :—“ Kyes, dark hazel; face and hands, black: it was very tame, and extremely fond of being petted: its cry was frequent, and seemed fretful, and resembled somewhat a kitten’s mew: it ate bananas, pineapple, ground nuts, palm-nuts, and appeared rather partial to butter. It was captured at a place called Waterloo.” Habitat, Sierra Leone. The tree is that of the Jack Fruit (Artocarpus integrifolia) of Dukhun, copied from one of Colonel Sykes’ drawings. The parts of fructification, only, are represented in the drawing, the fruit being too large for convenient representation. Se yen, CERVUS BARBARUS. GERVUS BARBARUS. Barsary Derr. Cervus Barbarus, BENNETT. _ Tuts is the only species of the Genus hitherto discovered on the vast continent of Africa, and we are solely indebted for it to the liberality of Colonel Sir Thomas Reade, K.C.B., and H. M. Agent and Consul-General at Tunis, who about the year 1831 presented a pair, alive, to the Society. Since then he has forwarded others to the Right Honourable the Earl of Derby; and in 1846, when in Tunis, I received from the same gentleman one male, three females and a young one; the three females were forwarded to Knowsley: the male, from which the accompanying figure was taken, and the young one, which proved to be a female, have lately been purchased from me by the Zoological Society. While in Tunis, I could not ascertain by what name the Arabs called the male, but the female they designate “Furrtarsar.” Notwithstanding Mr. Bennett's name has been so many years attached to this animal, | believe it has never been figured or described until now; the reason may be partly explained, by there remaining in that gentleman’s mind some doubts whether it would or would not ultimately prove identical with the Cerf de Corse of Buffon, but the want of actual specimens for comparison leaves the subject still in doubt. Habitat, Tunis (in the Jereed only), North Africa; it is also found in some parts of Algeria. TIMAILITA SONMIEIRVIOLILIET. TIMALIA MALCOLWMI. CHATTERING THRUSH. Timaha Malcolmt, Sykes, Proc. of the Comm. Sci. & Corr. Zool. Soc. 1832, p. 88. THE accompanying figure was taken from one of Colonel Sykes’ specimens, at present form- ing part of his own collection, and which has been most kindly lent to me, together with every other specimen, at the command of that Gentleman, that can assist me in the continuation of the present publication. Of this bird Colonel Sykes remarks ;—“ It is called by the Mahrattas ‘Kokuttee :’ it congre- gates in flocks of ten or a dozen; flies low, slowly, and with difficulty; never ceases chattering simultaneously. ‘Tongue deeply bifid. Liver of two lobes, fleshy and angular, one thrice the length of the other. Intestines varying from eight to twelve inches long, very wide. Duodenum not wider than intestine. Czeca minute, three-twentieths to two-tenths of an inch long. Colon seven-tenths to eight-tenths of an inch long. Spleen one inch long. Gall-bladder very small. Digastric muscle very strong, two-tenths to three-tenths of an inch thick. Stomach oval and compressed. In the stomach were found grasshoppers, minute insects, and seeds of Holcus Lorghum.” Colonel Sykes has dedicated this species to Sir John Malcolm, G.C.B., who zealously aided his researches in India. Habitat, Dukhun. The general colour is pale grey-brown: rump, paler: the wing and central tail-feathers are marked with indistinct brown bars: the under parts of the bird are dirty whitish, with a faint rose tint: the frontal. plumes are bluish, striated with white in the centre: irides, golden- yellow: the lower mandible, at the base, yellowish. Total length, eleven and a half inches. PALAEORNIS MODESTUS. PALZORNIS MODESTUS. Wraps PARRAKEET. Paleornis modestus, FRASER, Proc. Zool. Soc. 1845, p. 16. Tus bird is nearly allied to the P. Pondicerianus, but differs in the colour of the cheeks, breast, and mandibles; it differs also from P. Malaccensis in the paler colour of the cheeks, and that colour not extending further back than the ears, in the colour of the beak, &c.; it may also be readily distinguished from Mr. Hodgson’s Nepaul species by the colouring of the cheeks. Habitat ——? The general colour of the plumage is green; the cheeks are pale fawn; frontal band, greenish black; beak, black. The branch upon which the Parrakeet is perched, is copied from a drawing of Colonel Sykes; it is the Ficus .glomerata, a wild fig of Dukhun, called by the Mahrattas “Oombur,” to which the Colonel has attached the following memorandum:—‘In the Ficus glomerata the fruit not unfrequently grows from the trunk, as well as from the branches. The only difference that I observed between the Ficus glomerata and Ficus racemosa, is that in certain soils the fruit of the __F. racemosa ceases to be sessile, but is seated on somewhat long fruit-stalks, which is seldom the case with the /. glomerata.” ay ye Raat en be hee Sia Rae? BUCC® SUB-SULPHUREUS. BUGGO SUB=SULPHUREUS. YELLOW-BELLIED Bucco. Bucco Sub-sulphureus, Fraser, Proc. Zool. Soc. 1843, p. 3. In the plate is introduced a most beautiful specimen of the Coral Plant of Dukhun, with the male and female flowers very carefully delineated, copied from one of Colonel Sykes’ drawings. “It is the Latropha multifida of the Dictionaries, and is closely allied but is not of the genus Iatropha. Flowers in a cyme; pedicles and flowers, crimson; each cyme seldom produces more than two capsules, which appear generally in the central fork of the cyme. Flowers during the whole rains.” 3 This bird is like a Nuthatch in its habits, being capable of not only running up the trunk of a tree with great agility, but of descending also, head downwards, with equal or even more facility, an act which the Woodpecker is, I believe, unable to perform. ‘The tail is short and very soft, and is not used in climbing. Like our European Sitta, the downward position seems the most easy and natural. Of the difference of sexes, if any, | am unable to speak, but I have reason to believe the young of this genus differ considerably from the adult. The Buccos are stupid and inactive; I have shot three or four from the same tree, one after the other, without disturbing the rest. Habitat, Clarence, Fernando Po, Western Africa. The upper surface of the head and body is black; superciliary stripe, and one across the — forehead, which passes under the eye and along the cheek, and the whole of the under surface, sulphureous ; space between the superciliary and cheek stripes, black; upper wing and _ tail coverts, secondaries and tail, margined with yellow; under wing-coverts, yellowish white; irides, hazel; bill, black; legs, deep lead colour.

Soc. 1830-1, p. 104. Turs beautiful species of Gazelle, according to Col. Sykes, is found on the rocky hills of Dukhun, rarely exceeding three or four in a group, and frequently solitary. It is the Aalseepee or Black Tail of the Mahrattas; the Goat Antelope of Europeans. It was named in compliment to that able naturalist and amiable man, the late Mr. Bennett, Secretary to the Zoological Society. The intestinal canal of one mature specimen was twenty-six feet long, narrow, and contracted for _ its whole length on one side into numerous hemispherical loculi. The liver of one oblong flat lobe, with one fissure six and a half inches deep. The stomachs of the ordinary character of this genus. The caecum five inches long, one and two-tenths wide; the feces somewhat hard, for nine or ten inches from the rectum; the colon one inch wide. Spleen lens shaped three inches by two and a half, nearly flat. The gall of an intensely dull green colour. The specimen, a female, with one foetus in the womb. There are adults of this animal, both male and female, in the British Museum, an immature male in the Zoological Society's Museum, and immature specimens, male and female, in the Hon. East India Company’s Collection, all presented by Col. Sykes; it was from the male in the British Museum that the accompanying figure was taken. In the foreground is a sketch of some Basaltic columns, in the neighbourhood of Serroor, and in the background a view of the Palace of the Mankeswur at Tembournee ; copied from Col. Sykes’ drawings, made in the year 1827. Horns erect, slightly diverging from each other, bending slightly backwards at first, subse- quently with their points bending forward: ringed for three-fifths of their length. The whole upper surface and outside of the limbs rufous or red brown. Under surface and inside of the limbs white. Tail, black. A black patch on the nose. SM LVUOAv SOW TOT D GRIGETUS AURATUS. GoLDEN HamsTER. Cricetus auratus, Watrruouse, Proc. Zool. Soc. 1839, p. 57. Mr. Wateruovse says of this species, that it is less than the common hamster ( Cricetus— vulgaris ), and is remarkable for its deep golden yellow colouring. The fur is moderately long and very soft, and has a silk-like gloss ; the deep golden yellow colouring extends over the upper parts and sides of the head and body, and also over the outer side of the limbs: on the back the hairs are brownish at the tip, hence in this part the fur assumes a deeper hue than on the sides of the body : the sides of the muzzle, throat, and under parts of the body are white, but faintly tinted with yellow: on the back, and sides of the body, all the hairs are of a deep grey or lead colour at the base. The feet and tail are white. ‘The ears are of moderate size, furnished externally with deep golden-coloured hairs, and internally with whitish hairs. The moustaches consist of black and white hairs intermixed. This specimen was received from Aleppo, and presented to the Society's Museum, by G. R. Waterhouse, Esq. The skull, when compared with that of Cricetus vulgaris, differs in not having the anterior root of the zygomatic arch produced anteriorly in the form of a thin plate, which in that animal, as in the rats, serves to protect an opening which is connected with the nasal cavity: the facial portion of the skull is proportionately longer and narrower: in size there is much difference; the skull of Cricetus auratus being one inch and a half in length, and ten lines in breadth, measuring from the outer side of the zygomatic arches. Length of the head and body, seven inches and a half; tail, half an inch. abies Witten tre eebr ae 4 peter | oe aCe ee iat Se tire ee ae a Ra and et as De eee TENSE sonra, ee EUPLECTES RUFOVELAT US.

Durine my residence at Fernando Po, in the early part of the year 1842, I procured two male specimens of the above-named species, the one having the head entirely red, and the other having the black extending across the forehead, as represented in the accompanying plate. On reference to my note-book I find the following brief observations :—These birds, although in deep moult (in June), appeared to be pairing. One specimen was shot from the top of a very lofty tree, the others much nearer the ground. In an apparently young male the black extends across the forehead. A very good songster. Irides, red hazel; bill and feet, black. Habitat, Clarence, Fernando Po, Western Africa. Of this species, the whole of the body is black; the head and neck are red. Total length, seven inches.

Cercopithecus Campbell, Warernouse, Proc. Zool. Soc. 1838, p. 61. Tus species appears most closely allied to the Cercopithecus Mona of Schreber; it has not, however, the large white spot on the upper part of each thigh which serves to characterize that animal. | This monkey is named after the late Governor of Sierra Leone, Major Campbell, who brought an imperfect specimen of it from that country ; my specimens were said to be from the Mandingo Country. The only perfect specimen I have seen is now living in the gardens of the Society. The most remarkable characters m the animal are its long fur, and the hairs being divided on the back, as in most of the species of the genus Colobus. The average length of the hairs of the back is about two and a half inches; on the hinder half of the back, however, they exceed three inches. These hairs are grey at the base, and the remaining portion of each hair is black, with broad yellow rings, the latter colour prevailing. On the posterior half of the body, and the outer side of the hinder legs, the hairs are of a deep slate grey, and almost of an uniform colour; some of those on the middle of the back are obscurely freckled with deep yellow, and those on the thigh are very indistinctly freckled with white. The belly, mner side of limbs, fore part of thigh, chest and throat, are white. The hairs of the cheeks and sides of the neck are very long, and of a greyish white colour, grizzled towards the apex with black and yellow; some whitish hairs, tipped with black, are observable across the fore part of the forehead. The inner side of the ears is furnished with very long hairs of a greyish white colour, obscurely annulated with grey and pale yellow; these hairs vary from three-quarters of an inch, to an inch in length. The fore legs are black externally. The hairs on the upper side of the tail are grizzled with black and dirty yellow, and on the under side, with black and brownish white. The apical portion of the tail, which is furnished with longish hairs, is black, the black hairs occupying about one-third of the whole length of the tail.

Ture genus Hematornis contains at least three species, the characters of which were first pointed by Mr. Vigors in the Proceedings of the Committee of Science and Correspondence of the Zoological Society of London for 1830-1, p. 170; and more recently by Mr. Blyth in the Journal of the Asiatic Society of Bengal for 1845, p. 179. The specimen from which the figure was taken was presented by Hamilton Lindsay, Esq., Corr. Memb. ; the species also occurred in the Cumingian collection. Habitat, the Philippine Islands. The crown of the head, dark brown; the feathers of the neck, long and forming a ruff; the plumage of the back is brown; the under surface is reddish-brown, each feather having four or more large round white spots, these spots become smaller on the thighs; tail, dark brown, with broad bands of grey brown.

Sci. and Corr. Zool. Soc. 1832. Brytu, Journ. of the Asiat. Soc. Beng. p. 3876, 1844. 29 Tuis is another of the species of Tailor-birds, and, like the Prinia socials and Orthotomus Bennettii, manifests great ingenuity in the construction of its nest. The drawing of the bird is accompanied by a nest, formed from the broad leaf of the Lettsomia nervosa: the edges are brought together and kept in position by means of several separate filaments of cotton or thread, which the bird, using its bill as a needle, has carried through the edges of the leaf; and it will be seen that the ends of the filaments have knots or knobs to prevent the filament or thread ~ passing through the leaf. It is difficult to understand how these knots were tied, unless they resulted from the thread unravelling in being drawn through. The art of the bird, however, is not confined to sewing the edges of the leaf together, for the stalk-end of the leaf is bent so as to form a hood or roof over the aperture into the nest, protecting it equally from the rain and the sun: the interior of the nest is formed like that of the Prinia soctalis, and the eggs are red. The note of the bird and its general habits are those of the Prima socialis. The plant represents a species of Menispermum from Dekhan, called by the natives “ Gool Wail,’ copied from Col. Sykes’ drawing ; but the leaf in which the nest is constructed is that of a Lettsoma nervosa. Eitan Dekhan. The whole of the plumage above is pale grey-brown; superciliary stripe and body beneath, white, saturated with rufus on the flanks; tail, tipped with white, and indistinctly fasciated throughout its whole length. Irides, hazel; bill, brown, except at the base of the lower mandible, where it is yellow. ‘The bird has very much the physical conformation of Prinia socials ; but the lobes of the liver are without fissures, which are discoverable in the liver of the Prinia sociahs : the digastric muscle also is only one-twentieth of an inch in thickness, indicating that hard food is less suited to it than to the former. The length of the intestinal canal varied from four inches to four inches seven-tenths; the colon was only three-tenths of an inch long; and the ceca barely discoverable. In two males and two females the testes and ova were well developed: com- minuted flies, soft insects, and a caterpillar were found in the stomachs. Total length of bird five inches and two-tenths, including tail two inches and two-tenths. Two of the bird’s eggs are shown in the neighbourhood of the nest. Mia aS NIGRITA FUSC ONOTUS.

I HAvE ventured to place the accompanying bird in Mr. Strickland’s genus Nigra, not- withstanding the great contrast in its markings and distribution of its colours, the form of its bill, wings, legs, and tail, are essentially the same. Habitat, Clarence, Fernando Po. The head, neck, shoulders, primaries, rump and tail feathers, are shining black; the back and scapulars are grey-brown; the whole under surface is dirty white; the bill and feet are black; the irides are hazel. Total length, four inches and a quarter. The plant is the Mimosa scandens, known in the Dukhun (its native country) by the name of “Gharbee.” It is copied from a drawing by Col.

Tus species is immediately distinguishable from all the other species of the genus by the brightness of its colouring, and by the absence of the nuchal streak, and of the white on the under surface of the body. The specimen from which the accompanying figure was taken, was presented to the Society's Menagerie by Her Most Gracious Majesty the Queen. Many specimens have lived, from time to time, in the magnificent aviaries, at Knowsley, belonging to the Earl of Derby. The wheat forming the background of the plate was taken from ‘one of Col. Sykes’ drawings of a species of Triticum, called by the natives “ Bukoshee Guhoo,” found at Poona, in the Dukhan. Habitat, India; the exact locality is unknown. The general colour is reddish brown, the hairs on the body being tipped with black ; a stripe on each side of the chin, and down the middle and sides of the neck, is white; the chest, the insides of the thighs, and tip of tail, also white. Length of the head and body, twenty inches; tail, three inches. ‘HIOHL SMTVHETZIONIO GYNOGEPHALUS THOT, Tuotu Basoon. Cynocephalus Thoth, Ocitpy, Proc. Zool. Soc. 1848, p. 11. Tue following of the species is given by Mr. Ogilby :— “This Abyssinian species, which was reported to have been brought from Bombay, but which had no doubt been carried thither on board some vessel trading to the Red Sea, possesses a higher degree of interest than attaches to any other Cynocephal. With the exception of C. hamadryas, it is the only known species in that part of Africa, and must consequently have been the animal which we find so frequently figured among the hieroglyphics, and which was worshipped by the Egyptians under the name of Thoth. I have shown else- where (Nat. Hist. of Monkeys, &c., i. 431) that the Sacred Baboon of the Egyptians was not the C. hamadryas, as supposed by Ehrenberg; and though, from the mistake above alluded to, I was at that time inclined to identify it with C. anubis, there can now be no reasonable doubt that the animal which played so important a part in the mythology of that remarkable people, and of whose worship the city of Hermopolis was the principal seat, must have been the species at present under consideration. If this conjecture be well-founded, it follows also that the names eynocephalus, sphinx, &c., so often employed by Greek and Roman writers, must have referred to the same animal, at least originally; but as modern zoologists have applied all these names in a definite sense, I propose to distinguish the new species by the equally appropriate designation of “‘ Thoth” which it bore among the ancient Egyptians. “The individual from which this description was taken is an old male of large size, and, like the rest of _ his congeners, of a morose intractable disposition. The face is broad and of a dirty livid flesh-colour, lighter along the centre and ridge of the nose, and somewhat browner on the cheeks and muzzle; the cheek-bones are protuberant, the rostrum truncated, and the extremity of the nose reaching, but not surpassing, the plane of the upper lip and teeth. The hair of the fore-quarters is longer and thicker than on the rest of the body, though it does not form so dense or copious a mane as in C. hamadryas. The colour of the upper and outer parts of the body may be described as dark olive-green, and that of the lower and interior as light yellowish green; the breast, throat and under part of the chin are silvery grey; the lower parts of the whiskers are of the same colour, but they acquire a yellowish green shade as they approach and become intermixed with the hair of the head; the ears and palms of the hands are naked, and of a dark brown colour; the callosities very large and flesh-coloured, and the naked parts of the hips on each side of the callosities of a deep purple or violet-brown ; the scrotum is brown, and the sheath of the penis flesh-coloured. The tail is of medium length, without a terminal tuft, and carried in the arched manner common to the rest of the genus. The hind surfaces of the legs and thighs are furnished with long hair of a yellowish brown shade; the hands are of the same colour as the body, but the hind fingers are covered with longish grey hairs, and this character, together with the dark purple colour of the naked hips and brown scrotum, will always be sufficient to distinguish the present species from C. anubis and C. sphinx, in both of which the naked parts of the buttocks are of a brilliant blood- red, and the scrotum pale flesh-colour. In colour indeed C. Thoth approaches more nearly to C. sphinx than to C. anubis ; it has the same light silvery grey colour on the whiskers and under part of the body, but the upper colours are more obscure; the bright yellowish green is replaced by sordid dunnish brown, and the proportions of the two animals are entirely different, the long slender limbs and body of the sphinx contrasting strongly with the massive thick-set form of the present species.” pi ant ad < PRINIA SO@CIALIS.

Tuts bird, like the Prinia inornata and the Orthotomus Bennettii, is remarkable for the inge- nious manner in which it constructs its nest, by sewing together the edges of a broad leaf or leaves, forming a wide-mouthed bag, and depositing therein cotton, wool, and silky grass, in the midst of which several longish minute red eggs, from four to five-tenths of an inch long, are placed. — Col. Sykes has in his possession two of these nests; in which the filaments of cotton or thread, used in sewing, appear to be knotted at one end. The plant is that of a species of Plumbago, called “ Cheektah” by the Mahrattas of the Dekhan, copied from one of Col. Sykes’ drawings. Habitat, Dekhan. The colour of the head and back is intense grey; the wing-feathers, reddish brown; the tail of the same colour, each feather having a dark brown band near the apex; the whole under surface of the bird is white, with a rufous tinge, darker on the sides. Bill, black; tongue, long, slender, bifed at the end, and fringed black; legs, yellow; irides, pale-orange. The intestinal canal four and a half inches, the colon three to four-tenths of an inch long; the ceca barely discoverable, being diaphanous specks; the stomach small and globular; the testes and ova well developed; the digastric muscle weak, only one-tenth of an inch in thickness, indicating that the food of the bird is chiefly of a soft nature. Ants, flies, bugs, wasps, and minute brown beetles were found in the stomach of several birds. Sexes alike in size and plumage. The note of the bird resembles the words “ 'Tooee,” “Tooee;” and its flight is struggling, as if it experienced difficulty in making its way. It con- structs its nest fearlessly close to a dwelling, in case the leaves of the plants about suit its purpose. es pi * ae Ne IPI LO CHEUS CO PLOGEUS GOLLARIS. St. THomas Weaver Birp.

Habitat, the Island of St. Thomas, western coast of Africa. The crown of the head and the sides of the face, are black; the occiput, the neck, and the chest, are chesnut; the back and tail are olive-green; the rump is yellowish; the wings are blackish brown, each feather margined with yellow; the under surface of wings and body, yellow.

ALTHOUGH a specimen in the Collection of the Zoological Society of London, and others in the British Museum, were marked by Mr. Eyton as distinct under the name of vagans, the species does not appear in his monograph of the family. The species is nearly allied to the Dendrocygna (Anas arcuata, Avct.), but differs in being larger, in having a decided black stripe down the back of the neck, and white tail-coverts. Habitat, Manilla, Philippine Islands. Specimens were in the Cumingian Collection; the specimen in the Society’s Collection is believed to have been presented by Hamilton Lindsay, Esq., Corr. Memb. The head, neck, and breast, pale brown, being darkest upon the crown of the head; the under surface of the body, pale chesnut; shoulders, deep chesnut; the back, wings, and tail, intense brown, approaching to black; the feathers on the back, broadly tipped with pale brown ; down the back of the neck runs a black line, which extends from the occiput to near the insertion — of the shoulders; the flank-feathers, are white, margined with blackish; under surface of the wings, blackish-brown.

Tuis animal belongs to the same division as the 4. sylvicultrix of Authors, and is apparently equal to that animal in size. As in the species just mentioned, the muzzle is naked, and the horns are placed far behind the eye; they are short, straight (or nearly so), and pointed. This antelope I believe to be confined to the Island of Fernando Po, where it is extremely common, and much esteemed by the natives as an article of food; it is provided with a gland between the hoofs, and the female has four teats. The fur is short, glossy, and adpressed, of a bright rusty-red colour, darkish on the back, and paler on the under parts of the body; a black mark runs along the back very nearly to the tail; this mark is broadest towards the shoulders, where its width is about an inch or rather less; over the shoulders it becomes obliterated, blending gradually into the brownish hue which covers those parts and the neck. The upper surface of the head is of a deep rusty-red colour, shading into black at the tip of the muzzle; the sides of the face are yellowish fawn-colour, and the throat is whitish. The ears are of moderate size, broad, and somewhat pointed; externally they are clothed with closely adpressed small hairs, which are for the most part of a black colour, but im front at the base they assume a bright rust tint; this is also the colour of the fringe of longish hairs on the anterior margin. About half-way down the fore leg, and on the anterior surface, some black hairs are observable, intermixed with those of the ordinary colour; these become more numerous lower down, and form a mark which becomes gradually broader, and from the front to the hoof it encircles the foot; numerous white hairs are intermixed on this part, and they form a white ring to the hoof. The hind feet are coloured in the same way. “STTTO DIN IN pA SeLLs dd tall il HERPESTES VITTIGOLLIS. STRIPE-NECKED ICHNEUMON. Herpestes vitticollis, Bennett, Proc. Zool. Soc. 1835, p. 67.

The Stripe-necked Ichneumon is unquestionably the most splendid species of the genus, and may at once be distinguished from all its congeners by its red livery. The first specimens were sent home by Philip Poole, Esq., in 1835, then Assistant-Surgeon of the Madras Medical Establishment, with an accompanying note stating that they were obtained in the forests about twenty miles inland from Kolun or Quilon, in the Travancore Country. Since that time specimens have been received from Bombay and Madras. Mr. Elliott, in his list of Mammalia of the Southern Mahratta Country, says, a single specimen of this animal was caught, in the thickest part of the Ghat forest, by accident, in 1829. It is very rare, inhabits only the thickest wood, and its habits are but little known. , The muzzle is brown, the cheeks, the crown of the head, the back of the neck, throat and chest are grey, each hair being annulated with brown and white; this grey colour extends on to the shoulders, where the hairs are terminated with red; the body, rump, and the tail are bright red; a sttipe along the side of the neck, the fore legs, the hind feet, and the tip of the tail are black. The Bombay specimen in the Society’s Collection differs from those shot in the Travancore Country, ‘in having the whole of the body grey, and in this respect agreeing with Mr. Elliott's specimen from Madras.

The flowers are those of the Cotton Plant of the Dukhun (Gossypium herbaceum), rather less than half their natural size, copied from one of Col. Sykes’ drawings. The following description will serve to distinguish the species: the crest, back of the head, and cheeks, are brownish grey; the upper surface of the body is reddish olive; the under surface is pale rufous-brown; the tail is dull rufous-brown, indistinctly barred with black and tipped with white; the wing-feathers are red at their base, and barred on their outer webs, with black and grey towards their extremities; the feathers which surround the base of the bill are brownish red.

THE principal point of interest in the accompanying species is the possibility of its having been the original of our semi-domestic bird. Habitat, common, on the banks of the River Gambia. The head and upper part of the neck are bare; the former covered with a wrinkled scalp-like skin, gathered into a small keel-shaped ridge in the centre, about half an inch in length, and not more than a quarter of an inch high. The neck is red, naked principally on the throat and sides, and covered on the back with glossy black hair, or rather small feathers, with the beards so fine as to be perceptible only upon close examination. The lower part of the neck and breast are covered with feathers of a beautiful violet colour without spots, clearest on the breast, but with a browner hue upon the upper surface. The back, shoulders, and rump are of the usual brown colour, speckled thickly with minute white spots, each surrounded with an intensely black ring, much smaller and more numerous than in the common species, and intermixed with an infinity of still more minute white points. The greater coverts of the wings and whole under surface of the body are black, with large white spots; the quill-feathers spotted towards the shaft, and barred transversely on the lower margin only, and the tail-feathers light grey, with white spots in a black ring, and interspersed with numerous black dots or points. ‘The white spots of the coverts, quills, and belly are not surrounded by black rings, like those of the back and tail.

Tue most interesting points about this Cat is its resemblance to some of the Viwerride ; viz. in the form of the face, in the grey colouring and the longitudinal markings. Mr. Hodgson observes of this species, that it is affined to the Viverre by the form of its face; and to the Lynxes by the shortness of its tail, which extends but little below the os calcis. But it has no further resemblance to either; its ears being noticeably short and untufted, its body full, and its limbs strong and of medial length. The females are nearly as large as the males, to which they bear a close external likeness. The intestinal canal is more than three times the length of the body. It is the Chittra Bilow of the Tarai, and inhabits the open lowlands of the lower region of Nipal. According to Mr. Elliott it is the Wagate of the Mahrattas of the Ghats. It is very fierce ; living in trees in the thick forests, and preying on birds and small quadrupeds. A shkaree declared that it drops on larger animals, and even on deer, and eats its way into the neck; that the animal in vain endeavours to roll or shake it off, and at last is destroyed. The specimen, from which the figure and the original description were taken, came from Madras, and was presented to the Society by Thomas Heath, Esq. Another specimen, which lived in the Menagerie, had a very strong and disagreeable odour, came from Calcutta. The following detailed description is given by Mr. Bennett :— “The prevailing colour of the upper surface is a rather deep yellowish grey; the separate hairs being dusky at the base, yellowish in the middle, and having short black tips. The black lines and spots are formed of hairs destitute of yellow, and having the black tips of much greater length. A longitudinal black band passes on each side, from the inner canthus of the eye above the ear nearly to the shoulder; a second, more internally, passes to the same distance backwards, and is somewhat interrupted anteriorly; and between this and its fellow on the vertex is the vestage of a median line, which on the forehead is broken up into a double row of spots: these and the two adjoining lines subdivide in front into numerous very small spots between the eyes. Two black lines pass downwards obliquely on either side from below the eye, over the angle of the jaw; and from their terminations on each side there passes a transverse band across the throat: the space between these lines is nearly white, as is also a stripe over each eye, and the whole of the under jaw and chin. There is a large black spot surrounding the base of the ear posteriorly, and the ear is tipped with black. The long linear markings of the back are disposed in about five interrupted longitudinal bands, and some of the spots on the side assume a linear form. Of these, the most remarkable are one on each side of the neck, and an oblique wavy band on the shoulder. The spots on the sides generally approach a rounded shape, and form, posteriorly, four or five interrupted longitudinal rows. Those of the under surface are larger, and are arranged without order. On the fore limbs the spots are small externally, and internally there are on each two large transverse black patches. On the hinder limbs the spots are arranged so as to form interrupted transverse bands on both surfaces. The hairs of the soles of the feet are dusky brown. The tail is spotted above in the same manner as the sides; its colour beneath is uniform. The spots are throughout numerous. The whiskers are white, and take their origin from three black lines on either side.” Length of the head and body, two feet seven inches; tail, ten inches. “TUNOLS NIMdMTSa SORA TO @ SD 1 SGIURUS ELPHINSTONE]I. ELPHINSTONES SQUIRREL. Sciurus Elphinstone, Syxes, Proc. Comm. Sci. and Corr. Zool. Soc. 1830-1, p. 103. Tuts very beautiful animal is nearly allied to the Sciurus maximus, Aucr., and about the same size. The general arrangement of its colours is the same; but the chesnut of the body and reddish white of the tail and belly, according to Colonel Sykes, are invariable, and do not _ present those differences which exist m the Malabar Squirrel. It is called by the Mahrattas Shekroo, from its cries resembling that word; and is dedicated to a very distinguished person, and a zealous promoter of scientific research, the Honourable Mountstuart Elphinstone. In the compilation of the annexed plate, the author is much indebted to the liberality of Colonel Sykes for the use of an original drawing of the Squirrel, taken from life; and also a drawing of an extraordinarily large Wuhr (Ficus Indica) observed at the village of Mhou, Under Mawul, Poona Collectorate, Western Ghats; (which tree has been introduced into the back- ground of the picture, in a reduced form) and the branches extend, according to the statement of Colonel Sykes, two hundred feet in length, and one hundred and fifty feet in breadth, and is capable of affording a vertical shade to twenty thousand men at one time! The encamp- ment represented is that of Colonel Sykes, with a party of one hundred and four men, which appears lost amidst the stems of the tree. The Squirrel is found only in the lofty and dense woods of the Western Ghats of the Deccan. The flesh is whitish and very delicate eating. The ears and the whole upper surface of the body, half-way down the tail, outside of the hind legs, and half-way down the fore legs outside, of an uniform rich reddish chesnut. The whole of the under surface of the body from the chin to the vent, the inside of the limbs, and the lower part of the fore legs, the crown of the head, the cheeks, and the lower half of the tail are of a fine reddish white; the two colours being separated by a defined line, and not merging into each other. ‘The feet are of a light red; the forehead and down to the nose reddish brown, with white hairs intermixed. The irides are nut-brown. The ears are tufted. Length of head and body, sixteen and a half inches; tail, sixteen inches. 00 FALC®O SPARVERIOIDES. RSE te FALCO SPARVERIOIDES. Macteays Fatcon. Falco sparverioides, Vicors, Zoological Journal, vol. ili. p. 486, 1828. Mr. Vicors gives the following marks to distinguish this species :— “The head has not the bay or rufous spot on the vertew ; while the breast, abdomen, and under parts are strongly and entirely rufous. The internal webs of the quill-feathers are grey instead of white, and faintly, not strongly, fasciated with fuscous; the fasciz being indistinct, and the whole surface nearly of an uniform grey. The under wing-coverts differ materially from those of /’. sparverius, being strongly marked with black, which colour predominates over the white; in the other species the white prevails, with but a few black marks. The tail in our bird has a narrow greyish fascia at the apex; the Pf’. sparverius has a broad white one. All the twelve tail-feathers in our bird are uniform in colour and in markings; while in the other species the two external feathers have a white external web, and an internal web with a white margin at the apea extending nearly an inch, and marked with two black spots. Our species appears somewhat smaller than the generality of those birds which are represented as belonging to the true J’. sparverius.” Habitat, the Island of Cuba. The specimen was presented to the Society by William Sharpe Macleay, Esq. The whole of the upper surface is ash-coloured, somewhat marked with rufous on the back ; the forehead is whitish; the tail is uniform red above, paler beneath, with a band of black near the extremity, and terminated with grey; the chin, throat, and vent are white; the breast and under tail-coverts are rufous; the mandibles are blueish; the cere and legs are yellow; the nails are black.

Orn. vol. i. pl. 9, fig. 1, in having a white rump, the wings entirely black, the band across the chest much broader, and: the fleshy appendage around the eye red. These birds are by no means shy. My specimens were found among the branches of the naked trees, in June, sometimes in pairs; their form was short and thick, the feathering being a downy nature. They feed entirely upon insects. Habitat, Clarence, Fernando Po. This species is of a blueish black colour, with the throat, rump, and abdomen white. The eye is surmounted with a fleshy appendage of a red colour; the irides are red hazel; the bill is black, and the legs purplish. Total length, four inches. PLATYSTEIRA GASTANEA. CaM CORGURED SPECTACLED FLYCATCHER. Platysteira castanea, Fraser, Proc. Zool. Soc. 1842, p. 141. Tuts species, like its congener (P. leucopygialis), was found among the branches of naked trees, in the month of June, and bore the same short and thick form as in that species; its note is short. The Platysteira castanea is nearly allied to the Platyrhynchus Desmarestu of Jardine and Selby’s Ill. Orn. vol. i. pl. 9, ton 2, but differs from that species in having a chesnut back and wings, and a short black tail. Habitat, Clarence, Fernando Po. The general colour is chesnut; the crown of the head and the cheeks are grey; the chin is white; the abdomen is also white; the rump and flank feathers are white at their base, and light erey towards their extremities; the tail is black, the outer feather being edged with white. The fleshy appendage above the eye is red; the irides are red hazel; the bill is black; the legs are purplish. — Total length, four inches. LORIUS SUPERBUS. SUPERB Lory. Lortus superbus, Fraser, Proc. Zool. Soc. 1845, p. 16. Tuis bird is a male, and about equal in size to the Lorius Philippensis, Briss., to which indeed it is closely allied, but differs in having the shoulders and smaller under wing-coverts blue, and the larger ones black (in this respect somewhat resembling the Lorius domicellus, Avcv.), in the absence of the red band immediately below the black crown, as well as having an entire red band from shoulder to shoulder, whilst the corresponding band in LZ. Philippensis is inter- rupted in the middle of the back. The precise habitat is unknown. ~ The crown of the head, the larger under wing-coverts, and the points of the primaries on the under surface, are black; the cheeks, throat, chest, rump, upper tail-coverts, and a band from shoulder to shoulder, are red; the neck, shoulders, lesser under wing-coverts, belly, vent, and under tail-coverts, are blue; the wings, externally, are green; the red band between the shoulders is divided from the rump by a band of black, which is tinged with blue; the tail above is blue, beneath yellow. Inides, red-hazel; beak, deep orange; feet, almost black. Total length, fourteen inches. ae CERVUS FUMILIS. Dwarr Deer. Cervus humilis, BENNETT, Proc. of the Comm. Sei. and Corr. Zool. Soc. 1830-1, p. 27. THERE are two specimens of this Deer in the Society's Collection; both females: one lived for some months in the Menagerie, and was brought from Chile; the other was presented by Capt. Philip Parker King, R.N., Corresponding Member, who states that “the young was spotted with. yellow, and had a yellow stripe on each side the back; and that the animal was plentiful at Con- cepcion, and found even as far south as the Archipelago of Chiloe, living, he believed, in small herds.” The male of this species is unknown. The Cervus humilis, as its name implies, is a diminutive member of the Deer family. Its form — presents the usual characteristics observed in the group, the hair being short and closely applied to the skin. Its general colouring is of a bright rusty hue; but the under parts of the body are paler than the upper, and inclining to yellowish. ‘The cheeks and neck are greyish brown; each hair on these parts is, however, yellowish at the point. Length of the head and body, thirty-four inches; tail, three. VTLOSVYN SILIBNATW ; MEPRITIS NASUTA. LONG-NOSED SKUNK. Mephitis nasuta, Bennett, Proc. Zool. Soc. 1833, p. 39. In pointing out the peculiarities in which the Long-nosed Skunk differs from the other members of the family, Mr. Bennett says of this species, that by its robust form, the shortness and strength of its limbs, the greater production of its nose, the denseness, firmness, and. resist- ance of its strong hairs, and the entire nakedness of the soles of its feet, this animal differs from the Common Skunk of America. In the dried skin exhibited, the nose extends an inch beyond the line of the upper incisors, an hairy space of half an inch in width intervening between the upper lip and the soft naked muzzle. On its upper surface the naked part of the muzzle is extended backwards seven-eighths of an inch in an elliptical form. The fur of the body is composed of an under coat of crisped fine hairs, and of an: outer coat of strong and somewhat rigid hairs, which, however, have little of harshness, although they offer to the touch a marked difference in the resistance they oppose to pressure, as compared with the equally long but silky and soft hairs of the Common Skunk. The soft feel exists in two specimens, apparently referri- ble to the latter, which are contained in the Collection, and the difference in quality of the fur can therefore scarcely be attributed to locality. This difference is, moreover, combined with characters of form, especially about the nose, which authorize the consideration of the Long- nosed Skunk as a distinct species. Inhabits that part of California which adjoins to Mexico. The colouring, which in the genus Mephitis is evidently but little fitted to afford charac- ters on which reliance can be placed, consists, in the individual exhibited, of a single broad white band, extending from behind the eyes along the middle of the back, where it is more dilated, and passing continuously to the tail, the whole of which it occupies; the head is dark brown, and the remainder of the fur is black. ~The claws, remarkably strong on the anterior feet, are, as usual, horn-coloured. The hinder tarsi of the Mephitis nasuta are destitute of hair on their under surface, and the nakedness extends even beyond the heel. In one of the specimens of the Common Skunk before alluded to, the hinder third of the tarsus is slightly, and in the other densely, hairy. Length of the head and body, sixteen inches and a half; of the tail, nine and a half. a" rag LS y= AMADINA POENSIS, A. BICOLOR. AMADINA POENSIS. Frernanpno Po Finca. Amadina Poensis, Fraser, Proc. Zool. Soc. 1842, p. 145. Turs Finch is very common near the houses about Clarence (my specimens were shot, in fact, from the window of the house in which I lived), and occurs in flocks of about fifty. Its note is a “tweet-tweet.” They feed entirely upon the seeds of the eameete ed grass. The sexes do not differ. The young have a brownish cast. Habitat, Clarence, Fernando Po. The general colour is shining black; the primaries are spotted; and the sides of the body, as well as rump, are barred with white; the under wing, and tail-coverts, and the belly are white. The irides, hazel; the bill, light blue; and the legs, black. : Total length, four inches. AMADINA BICOLOR. Carpr PAaLMAS Mason. Amadina bicolor, FRASER, Proc. Zool. Soc. 1842, p. 145. [urs species is very common at Cape Palmas, living in the roofs of the huts belonging to the fish-men; in which situation they breed and commit much mischief, like our domestic sparrow (Pyrgita domestica, Cuvinr). The native name is Saybue. The adult bird differs from the Amadina Poensis in the absence of the white markings on the wings, rump, and sides of the body. Habitat, Cape Palmas, western coast of Africa. In the adult male the general colour is shining black, with greenish reflections; the belly, under wing, and tail-coverts are white ; the flank feathers are spotted with white. Bill, blue; legs, black. A second specimen, which perhaps will prove to be the young, is smaller and entirely brown. Total length, four inches. car Hed ita 0 VY GI. LS CU ML HR NICOPHALS 7 1 JME PHANIGOPHAUS CUMINGI. CuMING’S GOO Phenicopheus Cumingi, Fraser, Proc. Zool. Soc. 1839, p. 112. Tue bird now before us belongs to the family Cuculide, and to that sub-division of the genus Phenicopheus to which Mr. Swainson has applied the term Dasylophus. For a knowledge of this beautiful and very interesting species of Cuckoo, science is indebted to the researches of Hugh Cuming, Esq., who discovered it during his sojourn in the Philippine Islands, where it appears to be exceedingly rare, only two perfect specimens having been procured. To the specimen from which the accompanying figure was taken, the following notes were appended :— | “ Ansic En Bicol, language of Albay. Eyes red; pupil large and black; length from beak to tail, eight inches and a half; around the body, five inches.—H. Cuming.” This species may at once be distinguished from all the known members of the family by the singular structure of the feathers of its crest and throat: the shafts of these feathers being expanded at their extremities into lamine, which may be compared to the shavings of whale- bone; and in this respect they resemble the crest-feathers of the Toucan, to which Mr. Gould, in his Monograph, applies the name of Pteroglossus ulocomus, but are not curled as in that bird. The Phenicopheus Cumingi is found among the forest trees, in the province of Albay, Philippine Islands, and was presented to the Society by Hugh Cuming, Esq., Corresponding Member. The feathers above the nostrils, of the crest and chin, and down the middle of the throat, are grey at the base, each having a decided white spot towards the middle, and the terminal - broad expansion of the shaft is a glossy black, with blue or greenish reflections; the external edge of the expanded portion of the shaft is minutely pectinated; the occiput and sides of the head are grey, passing into dirty white on the cheeks and sides of the throat; the hinder part and sides of the neck, as well as the breast, are of a deep chesnut colour; the back, wings, and tail are of a deep shining green, all the tail feathers are broadly tipped with white; the vent, thighs, and under tail-coverts are dusky brown, tinged with green; the bill is horn colour, and the feet are olive. Total length, sixteen inches. a ee ieee ae Ena $ : = = - “ = - » by ay penne Fite tte 4 ¥ ‘. re hae a async ee our ~ , : Pi - ¥ ° 7 > ? + ‘. . v = = apiae eA te ee WH ve Wee aL en peat cetah ea aN cere pede zi . a : : : as : : = hears af ; 9 : . f ene ue oe pea ao ae Ee eee nen reins ae “ . a ; - : ns : ; ; eo ? i = ‘ Se (ae na ee ~ oer a ~< * ie ation . 2 = i vies .
