The earliest name for any form of Criniger is tephrogenys of 
Jardine and Selby and the description undoubtedly applies to 
one of the southern forms, though no locality is given. In the 
Journal of the Bombay Natural History Society [ designated the 
type-locality as South Tenasserim (vol. xxvii, p. 466, 1921). 
The female is a good deal smaller thau the male.
