The typical /.. jiinhridta from Java is larger, much blacker above, and Las 

 darker under tail-coverts, while birds from Sumatra, Borneo, aud Malacca are 

 smaller, more grey above, and with lighter, more or less whitish under tail-coverts. 

 There are in the Tring Museum three typical L. Jimbriata, labelled as coming from 

 Borneo, collected and labelled by Whitehead. They are mM-keA fimhriata, but this 

 is altered to cidininatn. I consider it very probable that they are wrongly labelled, 

 as Whitehead was in the bad habit of re-labelling his skins at home. If the labels 

 are correct, then my attempt to separate L. fiiiihriata and culminatm as subspecies 

 only might be erroneous, but I do not believe in typicaX jimbriata from Borneo.

I am by uo means certain about the subspecific uame which the Malayan 

 Peninsular form of the lora should eventually be called by. 1 cannot distinguish 

 the Pahang specimens Irom Sumatran aud Bornean ones {lora riridis Bjj., Consp. 

 Av. i. p. 397, 1850. ex Temm. MS. in Mus. Lugd., ex Borneo), but males with 

 black upper sides occur also in the Malay Peninsula, though ai>parently not often. 

 I am inclined to think that all the Malayan loras should be called Ac. tiphia ciridis, 

 while the black-backed ones are only exceptions.
