 excejit that the sui)ercilium is very much Jiarrower with no 

 tinge of buff.

All these specimens are practically adult, and none show 

 any sign of white ou the forehead or lores. Slightly 

 younger birds have the head deep iron-grey, paler on the 

 nape, not glossy black, and the mantle and rump less deep 

 maroon. The speculum is very variable in extent. The 

 whole series is pure white beneath.

 the north of the Malay Peninsula, which we have described 

 as T. p. annectens, differing from eastern Sumatran and 

 southern Malayan birds, T. p. sordida Stoliczka, in their 

 larger size and less grey coloraticm in the mantle and back.
