Dr. Buttikofer (Notes Leyd. Mus. xviii. pp. 168-169, 1896) has reunited with this

We have followed Dr. Blanford (Faun. Brit. Ind. Aves. Vol. iii. pp. 58-60, 1895) 
in including B. puncticollis (Malh.) from Southern India and Ceylon in this 
species. Mr. Hargitt has kept it distinct, but it would seem to us that the 
Scindian bird B. dilutus, Blyth, which he has included in B. awrantius, has 
at least an equal claim to specific value with B. puncticollis.
