Head and ueck all round, with upper breast, chestnut; chin and throat pale rufous to white; upper parts from the neck dark hrownish olive ; quills dark brown; lovier parts from breast, including wing-lining and lower tail-coverts, barred across with white and dusky black; the dusky bars becoming narrow and partly disappearing in the middle. Old females appear to resemble the male, but this is not quite certain; generally in females the chestnut is confined to the fore- head, sides of face, fore neck, and breast, the crown and nape being brownish olive like the back. Young birds have the rufous on the head, neck, and breast entirely replaced by brown; the inner webs of the quills are barred with white, and there are occasionally a few white bars with dusky edges on the upper wing-coverts. Base of upper mandible, and greater portion of the lower, green ; reljsainder of the bill dark brown; irides blood-red; legs black (Oates). Iris mottled closely on the exterior portion with red- brown on an olive ground; legs and feet plumbeous (Legge). Length 10; tail 2-3; wing 5 ; tarsus 1-7 ; bill from gape 1-2. Distribution. A winter visitor to Ceylon, arriving about the end of October and leaving about Tobruury. I
