21. One specimen was shot at Kuala Selangor on the Selangor coast in 
December, 1904. Also obtained in Trang in January, 1910. 
28. The inclusion of this species in the Peninsular list rests on a specimen so 
identified by the late Colonel Bingham, which was obtained at an altitude of 
1,500 feet on Bukit Serudum, Kuantan, Eastern Pahang. The species will 
not improbably be found in the mountains of the northern half of the Peninsula, 
which have not yet been properly explored. 
29. I believe I have seen this pigeon on the mountains of South Perak and on 
Pulau Jarak in the centre of the Straits of Malacca, off the mouth of the Perak 
River. Mr. Kloss has also obtained a specimen on Pulau Taya, a Small island of 
the Lingga group, south of Singapore [Journ. Straits Branch Roy. Asiat. Soc., 
No. 41, p. 58 (1904)]. Two specimens were also obtained by the Selangor 
Museum collectors on Great Karimon Island, east of Singapore, and within sight 
of it, in August, 1908, so that the species may fairly lay claim to be considered a 
Peninsular bird. 
30. Obtained on Terutau Island, one of the Langkawi group, uorth of Penang, in 
March, 1909; the most southerly record for the species. 
34. The only specimens recorded from the Malay Peninsula are three in 
the British Museum [Salvad., Cat. Birds, Brit. Mus., xxi., p. 486, spms. 1’, s/, t’ 
(1893) ], obtained at Malacca by Wallace and Maingay. The bird is imported 
from South China to Singapore as a cage-bird, and I am inclined to think 
that these specimens were escapes from captivity, as the species is not one that is 
at all likely to be overlooked, and no recent collector has met with it. Skins from 
the Philippines are in the Selangor Museum. 
38. The only locality within the limits of this paper, whence the Nicobar 
Pigeon has been actually obtained, is Pulau Jarak, where I collected two specimens 
in December, 1904. I have also seen it in the same month ona small islet near 
Pulau Terutau, and Mr. Seimund has met with it on Pulau Rumpia, one of the 
Sembilan Islands, in March, 1909. It is reported to occur on Pulau Pisang, off 
the west coast of Johore. The specimen from Khota Bharu, Kelantan, listed 
by Bonhote (P. Z. S., 1901 (i.), p. 77), is almost certainly a cage-bird. 
42. Common, near Kuala Lumpur, in reedy swamps in the carly months of the 
vear.
