months, wherever there are suitable open spaces. It is 

 particularly abundant in a big marsh near Kuala Lumpur, 

 whence Seimund has secured numerous specimens together 

 witli examples of C. spilonotus and C. tnelanuleiicus. 



-(- 44. ASTUR POLIOPSIS. 



Asiur poliopsis (Hume) ; Sharpe, tom. cit. p. 110. 



Two adult females and an immature bird from the interior 

 of Trang agi^ee Avell with this race and differ from the typical 

 A. had'ms of the Indian Peninsula in their smaller size 

 and in the absence of the rufous nuchal collar. In the 

 Singapore Museum there are specimens of this species from 

 " Singajjoie/' but their provenance is somewhat doubtful. 



>'45. AsTUR SOLOENSIS. 



Asiur soloensis (Lath.) ; Sharpe, tom. cit. p. 114. 



Very rare in the Malay Peninsula, whence we have only 

 one specimen from Langkawi, shot at the beginning of 

 December 1907. 



-f 40. IcTINAliTUS MALAYENSIS. 



Ictinaetus {Neopus) malayensis (Rheinw.); Sharpe, tom. 

 cit. p. 257; Robinson, p. 171. 



The Black Eagle is rare in the plains, though often seen 

 in the mountains of the Malay Peninsula. A fine adult 

 female was obtained near Chong, in Trang, on December 

 17th, 1909. 



i 47. Spizaetus nipalensis. 



Spizac'tus nipalensis (Hodgs.) ; Sharpc, tom. cit. p. 267; 

 Robinson, Journ. Fed. Malay States Mus. iv. p. 132 (1909). 



An immature male, exactly agreeing with others from the 

 Himalayas, was obtained by one of our Dyaks in the hills 

 of Pulau Terutau in March 1909. The species has been 

 procured in Southern China by Styan, but has not ap- 

 parently been recorded from Burma and Tcnasserira 

 (Blanford, Faun. Brit. Ind., Birds, iii. p. 333, 1895). The 

 present locality shews therefore a very considerable extcn.<ion 

 of ranae.
