132, 133. The shores of the southern portion of the Malay PeninsiiLa arc 

 not suitable for Cormorants, and the most southerly recorded locality is Pulan 

 Lalang, one of the Sembilan Islands, off the mouth of the Perak River. 



134. Noted off the coast of Senggora, November, 1901, and near Pulan 

 Tioman, S. China Sea, September, 1907. 



135. Seen off Batu, Selangor coast, November, 1906, and at the Area Islands, 

 Straits of Malacca, November, 1906, and Jnne, 1907. 



138, 139. Very local and occasionally disappearing for years at a time. 

 Fairly common at Patani, north-east coast in June, 1901. 



140, 141, 142. The southerly limit of the A'ultnre in the Malay Peninsula 

 appears to be Kuala Kangsar on the western side and the north bank of the 

 Pahang River on the east. 



140. Shot near Taiping about fifteen years ago, and not met with since. 



149. Recorded from Singapore by Dr. Hanitsch, but probably belonging to the 

 Burmese race, A. poliopsis, Hume. 



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 refer- 

 rable to A. gularis and not to the typical A. virgatus. In the mountains, however, 

 a small richly coloured bird is found resembling .4. nifotihial {.•< from Kina Balu, 

 which may possibly be a distinct species. Furtlier material is wanted before the 

 point can be decided. ,
