BIRDS FROM SIAM AND THE MALAY PENINSULA 469 



ary 28, 1897. He describes the soft parts as: Iris dark brown; bill 

 black, brownish beneath; feet pale fleshy, pale brownish fleshy, pale 

 bluish fleshy, or purplish fleshy. 



The species ranges from southern Tenasserim south through Penin- 

 sular Siam to the Malay States, Sumatra, and West Java. Robinson 

 and Kloss ^ say that specimens from the Malay Peninsula, Sumatra^ 

 and West Java are alike. 



Stuart Baker erected the genus Olcyornis for this species, but 

 Chasen * has removed it to Rhinomyias Sharpe where it probably 

 belongs.

 and western China. 



The race ranges apparently from western Szechwan and Yunnan 

 south through Burma to Siam, Laos, Tonkin, and northern Annam.

One male, Kao Soi Dao, Trang, December 24, 1933. 



Dr. W. L. Abbott collected two males, Kao Soi Dao, Trang, 1,000 

 feet, February 8, 1899; one male and one unsexed specimen. Lay Song 

 Hong, Trang, August 31, 1896, and January 1, 1897; and one unsexed 

 specimen, Telok Besar, Tenasserim, March 19, 1904. 



This series, while small, appears to be darker above than more 

 northern specimens. Two specimens from the Langbian Peaks, 

 South Annam, are paler and evidently go with the northern form.
