Young birds have the greater and median wing-coverts, secondary 

 quills, and scapulars with pale buff edges to the outer webs, and 

 the anterior part of the bill whitish yellow. 



Length of male 33; tail 11; wing 14'5; tarsus 2 ; bill from

 Borneo. 



Habits, fyc. Davison describes this Hornbill as a shy bird r 

 keeping to high trees in forests, in parties of five or six, and never 

 descending to the ground. The note resembles that of Anthra- 

 coceros coronatus and is uttered at short intervals. 



Genus PTILOUEMUS, Grant, 1892. 



Like Anorrhinus, but with the throat covered with feathers ; tail 

 more rounded ; feathers of crest, throat, and fore neck somewhat 

 lax in texture ; tail-feathers all tipped with white. There are two 

 species, both peculiar, so far as is known, to British territory east 

 of the Bay of Bengal.
