HETEROSCOPS LUCIAE. 61 
also much resembling Heteroscops vulpes Ogilvie-Grant (Bull. 
Br. O. C. XIX, 1906—’07, p. 11. — Journ. F. M. 8. 
Mus. III, p. 51, pl. III, f. 1), which too is a very near 
ally to luciae. Unfortunately Bn. van Dedem collected only 
this single specimen. It appears to me, that it much resem- 
bles the second male described by Sharpe on p. 78, Ibis 1889, 
with the exception of the spots on the hind-neck, which 
are not tawny-buff, but yellowish white. I have compared 
our bird with two specimens of H. luciae from Kina Balu, 
a light and a dark coloured one, kindly placed at my 
disposal by Messrs. Rothschild and Hartert. For the present 
I do not find differences important enough to separate this 
sumatran bird. According |to the collector bill and feet were 
white, iris pale yellow. Length of wing 138, of tail 69 mm. 
The bird was shot on Volcano Sibajak at an elevation 
of about 1700 m., 12 October 1909. (Coll. van Dedem 
ne. 121).

A female of this species has been collected by the same 
gentleman at Brebes, west of Tegal, northcoast of central 
Java, 27 January 1910. When comparing this bird with 
the material in the collection of the Leyden Museum, I 
found that in our collection there is also a specimen, 
a male, from Java, without indication of more definite 
locality. This species is, as far as I am aware, not only 
unknown from Java but also from the Malay Archipelago. 
The bird collected by Bn. van Dedem agrees perfectly 
with tbat in our collection. Both are somewhat darker and 
brighter coloured than the two type-specimens (females) 
of Hemipodius dussumieri Temminck from Bengal, pre- 
served in our collection, the only ones I had for com- 
parison.
