600 Count Nils Gyldenstolpe : A Nominal [Ibis, 



Yellow-nnpcd Woodpecker belongs to the form described by 

 the present author on a single male specimen procured at 

 Koon Tan in northern Siam. In mv paper on the birds 

 collected by the Swedish Zoological Expeditions to Siam, 

 1911-1912, 1914-1015 (Kongl. Svenska Vetenskapsakad. 

 Hand]. Bd. 56, Nr. 2, 1916, p. 29) I also recorded some 

 other specimens from various localities in Siam under the 

 name of BracliijlopJnis cldorolophus cldoroloplais Yieill. The 

 ^ type locality of the typical race may be considered to be 

 Bengal. As suggested by Kloss (Ibis, 191.S, p. 106), the 

 Siamese birds all belong to the form described by me, though 

 the type si>ecimen was aberrant in having the red of the 

 crown extremely well developed. I have now been able to 

 compare my Siiunese specimens with some birds from Upper 

 Assam and Lower Chindwin, and the Siam birds are certainly 

 different. The nuchal crests are paler and the outer webs 

 of the primaries are unspotted. The primaries and the 

 secondaries are more red and the throat and breast are 

 greener olive and less brown, all these characters being- 

 mentioned by Kloss.
