BIRDS FROM SIAM AND THE MALAY PENINSULA 151 



oviduct ready to be laid, and a fully fledged young male was taken 

 at Kengkoi on May 5. 



The form ranges from central and south Burma to Siam, Cam- 

 bodia, Cochincliina, and Lower Laos. Apparently it occurs locally 

 nearly all over Siam except the Peninsular part of the country, from 

 where I have seen no records.

 (Bangkok, Siam). 



One male and one female, Ban Sadet, Sriracha, May 30 and 31, 

 1925; one male and one female, Lam Klong Lang, Pak Chong, June 12 

 and 13, 1925; one male and three females, Pak Chong, eastern Siam, 

 November 17-19, 1925, April 29, 1926, November 28, 1929; three 

 females, Nong Khor, near Sriracha, September 27, 1925, February 6 

 and 12, 1927; one male. Ban Nakae, March 3, 1929; one male, Sakon 

 Nakon, March 12, 1929; one male, Knong Phra, April 13, 1929; one 

 male. Ban Tarn Dam, southeastern Siam, March 5, 1930; one male, 

 Nong Yang, November 6, 1931; two males, Hupbon, October 27 and 

 November 3, 1931; one male. Bung Borapet, July 1, 1932; one female, 

 Chieng Dao, January 29, 1932; one male, Mekhan, February 7, 1932; 

 one female, Ban Takaw, October 22, 1932; one male, Khonka Valley, 

 January 25, 1933; one female, Vichienburi, February 26, 1934; one 

 male, Kao Luang, Nakon Sritamarat, October 6, 1930. Dr. Smith 

 also took a male on the Pai River, Burma, January 11, 1933, that 

 seems to be indistinguishable from the Siamese specimens. 



Just how far this form extends south in Peninsular Siam, I do not 

 know. Dr. Smith secured it from Kao Luang, Nakon Sritamarat, as 

 listed above, and it has been taken nearly all over the country from 

 this point north to Burma and to the east into Cochincliina. 



Herbert '^ collected two sets of three eggs each from near Bangkok — 

 one from Ban Laing, January 17; the second from Poh Teng, February 

 3; and a single egg from Koh Yai, February 7. 



GLAUCIDIUM BRODIEI TUBIGER (Hodgson) 



Nodua tuhiger Hodgson, Asiat. Res., vol. 19, p. 175, 1836 (Nepal). 



One female, Khun Tan Mountams, 4,000 feet, November 19, 1928; 

 two males and one female, Khun Tan, 4,000 feet, February 25-March 

 3, 1932; one male, Huey Yang, Sriracha, August 3, 1932; one female, 

 Kao Sabap, November 30, 1933. Dr. Smith describes the soft parts 

 as: Iris light yellow; bill greenish yellow; toes greenish, claws dark 

 brown. 



The female from the Khun Tan Mountains agrees fairly well with 

 a male from Tcnasserim; in fact the dark bars above are even darker
