 LAMPROCORAX PANAYENSIS HETEROCHLORUS Oberholser. 



Lamprocorax panayensis heterochlorus Oberholser, Bull. U. S. Nat. Mus., 

 No. 98, June 30, 1917, p. 57 (Pulo Mobur, Aiiamba Islands). 



Four specimens : 



Adult female, No. 170888 ; U.S.N.M. ; Pulo Wai, August 12, 1899. 



Juvenal female, No. 171130, U.S.N.M. ; Pulo Selindaiig, August 3, 

 1899. Length in flesh, 210 mm. 



Juvenal (nearly adult) male, No. 170874, U.S.N.M.; Great Tam- 

 belan Island, August 9, 1899. 



Juvenal male. No. 171131, U.S.N.M.; Pulo Selindang, August 8, 

 1809. Length in flesh, 216 mm. 



The adult female is in worn summer plumage and has apparently 

 not yet begiin to molt. The three juvenal birds, however, are in the 

 midst of the change, this involving both quills and contour feathers; 

 and one of the juvenal males (No. 170874, U.S.N.M) has acquired 

 nearly all its adult plumage. These birds seem to be quite identical 

 with examples of Lmnp^^ocorax j^aiiayensis heterochlorus from the 

 Anamba Islands. 



Doctor Abbott reported this starling common on Pulo Wai, August 

 12-14, 1899 ; on Pulo Bunoa, August 5-7, 1899 ; also on Great Tam- 

 belan Island, August 8-12, 1899 ; and he observed it on Saddle Island, 

 August 15, 1899.
