BIRDS FROM SIAIM AND THE MALAY PENINSULA 435 



PHYLLOSCOPUS OCCIPITALIS CORONATUS (Temminck and Schlegel) 



Ficedula corortata Temminck and Schlegel, in Siebold's Fauna Japonica, Aves, 

 p. 48, pi. 18, 1847 (Japan). 



One male, Bo Ploi, Kanburi, September 26, 1929; one female, Pran^ 

 April 1, 1931; one male, Koh Tao, off Bandon, September 27, 1928; 

 one male and one female, Kao Soi Dao, Trang, December 30, 31, 1933. 



Dr. W, L. Abbott collected four males and two females in Trang 

 (Lay Song Hong, December 20, 28, 1896; Kao Nom Plii, 2,000 feet. 

 March 3, 1897; Kao Nok Ram, 1,000 feet, January 17, 1899; Trang, 

 January 29, 1897). 



This series agrees with specimens from North Chma and Korea. 



The form breeds in eastern Siberia, Korea, and Japan and migrates 

 south to Indo-China, Siam, Tenasserim, the Malay States, and Java 

 to whiter. 



Evidently P. o. coronatus is a common winter visitor to all parts of 

 Siam and migrates farther south than most of the birds of this genus 

 visiting the country. 



PHYLLOSCOPUS REGULOIDES REGULOIDES (Blyth) 



Phyllopiieusle reguloides Blyth, Journ. Asiat. Soc. Bengal, vol. 11, p. 191, 1842 

 (Darjeeling.'', India). 



Two males, Ivlum Tan, October 27, 1929, February 22, 1932. 



These two specimens belong to a form whiter below than P. r. 

 claudlae; it is what has passed by authors as Phj/lloscojnis trochiloides 

 (Sundevall), but Count Gyldenstolpe ^^ has show^n that Acanthiza 

 trochiloides Sundevall really applies to the species known to authors as 

 Phylloscopus lugubris. 



Stuart Baker ^^ gives the range as breeding from Afghanistan 

 frontier through Gilgit and Kashmir to Garhw^al, Nepal, Sikkim, and 

 Tibet. It winters in Bengal, Assam, Burma, to Tenasserim. 



The United States National Museum has a male of this form from 

 the mountains of Shensi, a male from Hupeli, and a male from Kwei- 

 chow; the two latter are migrants. I have examined only one speci- 

 men from Nepal. It is slightly more yellowish below than the others 

 mentioned but is close to them. If the two Siamese specimens do not 

 belong to it, I do not know where else to place them. 



PHYLLOSCPPUS REGULOIDES CLAUDIAE (La Touche) 



Acanlhopneusle trochiloides claudine La Touche, Bull. Brit. Orn. Club, vol. 43, 

 p. 22, 1922 (Mengtz, Yunnan). 



One male, Khun Tan, February 22, 1932. 



This specimen agrees fairly well with a series of birds from the 

 mountains of western Szechwan and western Yunnan. A small num-
