white with a fulvous wash; breast with large blackish spots; abdomen

“Dr. J. B. Steere, the first naturalist before whom a series of specimens 
[of Yungipicus] from all these localities ever lay, saw at once the dif- 
ferences between the Luzon and Panay birds, which unfortunately he 
seems not to have thought worth pointing out, and rightly retained the 
name ‘maculatus’ for the Panay species. The Luzon birds he called 
‘validirostris, with apparent reason as they most certainly are not mac- 
ulatus and the birds described by Blyth may well have come from Luzon. 
The Mindanao-Basilan species he re-described under the name ‘Yungi- 
picus basilanicus, overlooking Hargitt’s name and description entirely. 
* * * The other species of the genus found in the Philippine 
Islands with the possible exception of that from Samar and Leyte are so 
well-marked that no possibility of confusion exists.” (Bourns and 
Worcester.) 
“Quite common in Marinduque. Not abundant in the parts of Min- 
doro visited by us, and no specimens were gathered by the Menage Ex- 
pedition. A female specimen in the Steere collection measures as follows: 
Wing, 79; tail, 44; culmen, 17; tarsus, 14; middle toe with claw, 15.”
