138. Dr. Abbott observed “a large white Pelecan ” in Trang. 
140, 141, 142. The southerly limit of the Vulture in the Malay Peninsula 
appears to be Kuala Kangsar on the western side and the north bank of the 
Pahang River on the east. 
1424, According to Dr, Abbott, a large white Vulture is common in Trang and 
Penang. I have never seen it in the latter locality. 
140. Shot near Taiping about seventeen years ago, and not met with since. 
149. Recorded from Singapore by Dr. Hanitsch, but probably belonging to 
the Burmese race, A. poliopsis, Hume. A series from Trang have not yet been 
critically examined, 
150. Two specimens in the Perak Museum, shot near Taiping many years ago, 
undoubtedly belong to this species. 
151. I have followed Ogilvie-Grant in regarding the Malayan Besra as 
referable to A. gularis, and not to the typical A. virgatus. In the mountains, 
however, a small richly coloured bird is found approaching A. rufotibialis from 
Kina Balu, which may possibly be a distinct species. Further material is wanted 
before this point can be decided. 
1554, A young bird with the under surface uniform buffy pink was obtained 
in the Langkawi group in March, 1909. From its large size (wing, 18 inches), 
and from the fact that the tarsus is feathered nearly down to the toes, it must, 1 
think, be identified with this species. 
157. The species is recorded from Ampang, near Kuala Lumpur, Selangor, by 
Mr. A. L. Butler, but the specimen is no longer extant.
