 Hartert, p. 540: Grant (2). p. 53. 



Very common throughout the central portion of the Peninsula from 

 the foot of the hills to over 5,00() ft., especially in the neighbourhood of 

 the hot springs which are not uncommon. I can detect no difference 

 whatever between specimens from 5,000 ft. and those from 200 ft.

Fairly common throughout the hills, but more so at 2,000 ft. tlian 

 at higher elevations. TJauges up to 4,500 ft.

Apparently visits the high mountains of Perak in winter ; one was 

 ti-apped near the Telum River in Noveml)or, 1908, two or three miles 

 from the locality whence a specimen was secru-ed in January, 1902.

Accipiter gularis (Temm. and Schleg.) : Grant. Ihi.i. 1890. pp. 104 

 et »eqq. 



(J. Gunoug Mengkuang Lebah, Sel.ingor, o,200 ft. 3r<l April, J!i<»."). 



A single very adult male in fresh plumage has the upper parts 

 jiure slate-grey; throat stripe reduced \o a mere hair line under parts 

 except throat. l)elly and under tail coverts Avhich are pure white, rufous 

 salmon; thighs rufous salmon. Wing ti.4 in., tail 4.8 in., tarsus 1.85 in. 



This specimen may possibly represent a distinct mountain fonn 

 bearing the same relation to A. gvlaris that A. rvfotihiolix, Sharpe, 

 from Kina Balu does to the typical A. rlrgatng. It differs from 

 A. rufotibialis in larger size and in the almost obsolete throat stripe.
