a-b. 2 V. Kuah, Pulau Langkawi, 29th November, 

 1st December, 1907. 



Common all over the Peninsula during the winter months 

 but commoner in the north.

a. i. Pulau Adang, Butang Archipelago, 20th 



April, 1911. 

 b-d. 3 ?. Pulau Paya, nr. Kuala Kedah, 24~26th 

 April, 1916. 

 This specimen is common in the high mountains of the 

 Malav Peninsula, all our specimens being dated October to 

 March, but the above specimens, together with one from Pulau 

 Jemor, Aroa Islands, shot in November 1906 are the only ones 

 recorded from low elevations. It is evident, therefore that the 

 species is migrant and not a permanent resident, the above 

 specimens being on passage. 



72. Alseonax latirostris (Raffles). 



Sharpe, torn. cit. p. 453; Robinson and Kloss, p. 51; 

 Robinson, Ibis, 1915, p. 742 ; Gyldenstolpe, p. 74. 



a. ?. Pulau Dayang Bunting, Langkawi. 9th 



December, 1916. [No. 3606.] 



b. $ . Telok Wau, Terutau, 19th December, 1916. 



[No. 3668.] 

 " Iris black, bill black, the base yellowish, tarsi 

 brownish black." 



Common throughout the Peninsula during the winter 

 months. 



I have grave doubts as to the validity of Alseonax 

 siawensis, Gyidenst. Ornith. Monatsi. xix, p. 27 (1916) ; loc. cit. p. 

 74, founded on two specimens from Ban Hue Pong, Northern 

 Siam. The descriptions read like that of a freshly moulted 

 specimen of the above species but without actual examination 

 of types or topotypical specimens it is impossible to be 

 certain. 



73. Puliomvias mugimaki (Temm.). 



Poliomyias luteola, Sharpe, torn. cit. p. 201 ; Robinson 

 and Kloss, p. 52.
