We did not on this occasion obtain this partridge in

 specimens at Tasan. It is common in Trang and Bandon in bamboo 

 and secondary jungle and still more so in the state of Perils on the 

 international boundary. In the Federated Malay States it is extre- 

 mely rare and only known from high elevations.
