 Anthreptes malacensis basilanicus Hachisuka (Bull. Brit. Orn. Club 47: 68,

 Anthreptes malacensis heliocahis Oberholser 



Journ. Washington Acad. Sci. 13 (11) : 229, June 4, 1923. 

 =Anthreptes malacensis heliocala Oberholser?, fide Deignan (MS.). 

 113786. Adult male. Pulau Sangihe (Great Sangihe Island), lat. 3°33' 

 N., long 125°32' E., Sangihe Islands, Celebes Sea between Mindanao 

 Island and the northeasternmost cape of Celebes. June 30, 1886. Col- 

 lected by C. C. Platen. Received from C. Hart Merriam, of whose 

 private collection it once formed part. 

 Anthreptes malacensis sanghirana Hachisuka (Bull. Brit. Orn. Club 47: 68, 

 Dec. 29, 1926) is an absolute synonym. 



The putative race of Pulau Sangihe may be valid, but it should be noted 

 that Oberholser, with but one male and one female, described heliocala as 

 similar in the male to heliolusa, but "somewhat brighter and of a more golden 

 yellowish below," while Hachisuka, with but two males and one female, found 

 the same sex, in comparison with the bird of Basilan, to have "the under- 

 parls of a more greenish than yellow tinge"!
