We are, on the question of the races of this woodpecker, in 

 substantial agreement Avith the views of Baker {l.c.s.}, though there 

 are one or two points on which remarks may not be amiss. 



As in so many instances, the area with which we are now 

 dealing extends over both sides of a well defined faunal boundary. 

 The specimens from Koh Lak in our collection are undoubtedly 

 D. j. intermedia ; while specimens from Bandon and Trang, south to 

 Selangor, are just as clearly D. j. javanense. Birds from the Pakchan 



*Nos. 4136 (J) and 4181 (?) are ranging towards D. j. javanense.
