6. BUCEROS Pmaean. 

 The Sumatrans distinguish another species by the name of 

 Pusaran ^Uy of which I have a living specimen, as yet too 

 young to allow of being accurately distinguished, the horn being 

 only partially developed. On its throat is a bag capable of being 

 distended with air, of a bright yellow colour.
