DEFINITIONS
ALOPHOIXUS
(Pycnonotidae; Ϯ Yellow-bellied Bulbul A. phaeocephalus) Gr. αλοφος alophos without a crest < negative prefix α- a- ; λοφος lophos crest; genus Ixos Temminck, 1825, bulbul; "Genus ALOPHOIXUS, n. gen. The bird for which I propose the above generic designation has hitherto been placed with Criniger. It differs from that genus in entirely wanting a crest, a character of sufficient importance, in my estimation, to warrant its separation from Criniger, in which genus the crest is remarkably long and conspicuous. 268.
