194 MESSRS ROBINSON AND KLOSS ON 



Junk Seyloii, oti"tlie west coast oi' Peiiinsiiljir Siani. Witli the excep- 

 tion of the specimen obtained by tlie Skeat Expedition on Gunong 

 Inas in North Perak, which is the most northerly record, all known 

 .specimens of this woodpecker in Europe or elsewhere have been seut 

 home by the F. M. S. Museums. We have never obtained CIt. /. 

 ivrayi in Salanga, or within 300 miles of it, and the citation is 

 obviously a Jiiisprint for ^Srlaugor, in the mountains of which State 

 the bird is fairly conuiion. 



Without wishing too frequently to belabour the matter of 

 Mr. Baker's geographical inexactitudes (Ibis, 1919, p. 193), they 

 being rather his misfortune than his fault, since owing to special 

 circumstances he had to <lepeud on labels written by a native collec- 

 tor, it must be noted, in the interests of correctness, that Chan Tuek 

 (Chanteuk) and Pakchan or Pakjan (Pak Jong or Pak Chong) are not 

 in the same part of Siam as Koh Lak, whence the type of C f. lylei 

 was procured : the latter is in S. W. Siam, not far south-east of 

 Mergui : both the forme.r are in the range of hills between Saraburi 

 and Korat, which separate the basins of the Meuam and Mekong. 

 Birds from this district are undoubtedly p'lerrel, as had been pre- 

 viously stated by one of us, the range of which in Southern Siam is 

 probably bounded westward by the Menam : those from S. W. Siam 

 are, just as undoubtedly, not that bird.
