coverts and malar stripe strongly washed with that colour ; the third, 

 a female, has sinciput and gular pouch completely obsciired with blue, 

 the ear-coverts are likewise blue and the malar stripe is greenish -blue. 

 The Bentong specimen has black sinciput and malar stripe, the ear- 

 coverts are greenish and the gular patch is much reduced. In certain 

 areas at least the differences of colour which have given rise to two 

 names appear largely due to differences of age and sex. Grant (Fasc. 

 Mai. Zool., Report on the Birds, p. 102) records the black-eared form, 

 C. duvanceli, from so far north as Nawngchik in Patani : on the other 

 hand, Traug birds are decidedly C. cyanotis as are also examples from 



Trengganu.
