DUTCH BORNEO-EXPEDITION. 215 



Hab. Nias, Sumatra and Borneo, where it is distributed 

 over the whole island. 



143. Anthreptes rhodolaema. 



Anthreptes rhodolaema Shelley, Mon. Nect. p. 313, pi. 101, fig. 1 

 (1878); Sharpe, Ibis 1879, p. 260; Everett, L. B. Born. p. 137. 



Four adult males and a female from Pontianak, Smitau 

 and Roema Manoeal, and an adult male from the Upper 

 Mahakkam. — Iris red, bill black, feet olive-brown, soles 

 yellow. — This species is easily distinguished from A. malac- 

 censis by the red instead of olive tinge of the sides of the 

 head, the great extent of the red color on the wing-coverts, 

 the absence of purplish blue on upper back and mantle, 

 and by the green instead of yellow color of the lower 

 surface. In the above-mentioned localities it is generally 

 found together with A. malaccensis. Captain Shelley, who 

 in his above-mentioned monograph was the first to separate 

 it from A. malaccensis, mentions as habitat of the present 

 species Malacca and Sumatra, but the Leyden Museum is 

 in possession of a great number of specimens from Borneo, 

 which island is for the first time mentioned as the habitat 

 of this species by Dr. Sharpe (1. c). 



Hab. Malay Peninsula, Sumatra and Borneo.
