PYROTROGON, Bp. 
We have followed Mr. Richmond (oc. cit.) in substituting this name for Harpactes, 
Swains, ; strictly speaking Hapalurus, Reichenb., is the next available, but this 
author does not appear to have indicated a definite type for his genus.

There appear to be two forms of the Trogon hitherto known as Harpactes diardi 
(Temm.), similar in all respects except that while the male of one has the top 
of the head black the other has it dull crimson ; the latter, which appears to be 
confined to Borneo,is the one figured by Temminck, and to it, therefore, the name 
P. diardi applies. The Malaccan form appears unnamed,and we have accordingly 
with some hesitation considered it as a distinct species. 
Through the kindness of the Hon. Walter Rothschild we have examined female 
specimens from Borneo, and are unable to detect any differences between them 
and Malaccan birds. Two male specimens in the collection from an unspecified 
locality are somewhat intermediate, having the crown red to the posterior 
margin of the eye. The Sumatran birds belong to the Malaccan form. 
It is interesting to note that specimens of both sexes in worn plumage appear 
readily to lose the black tips of the russet tail feathers, as they are absent in 
many of our specimens.
