NO. 2 ASIATIC BIRDS OF GENUS CRINIGER—DEIGNAN 7 
but it should be noted that sacculatus ranges principally between 
2,500 and 4,500 feet, while tephrogenys “is met with on the hills of 
Negri Sembilan, and on Kedah Peak, and also on the hills of Patani 
up to about 3000 feet” (Robinson, Birds of the Malay Peninsula, 
vol. 2, 1928, p. 163). Both forms have been taken at Ginting Bidei 
at an elevation of 2,300 feet. 
Criniger ochraceus sumatranus WARDLAW RAMSAY. 
Criniger sumatranus WarpLAw Ramsay, Ann. and Mag. Nat. Hist., ser. 5, 
vol. 10, No. 60, December 1882, p. 431 (“M[ount]. Sago” [ca. 70 miles 
northeast of Padang, which lies at lat. 0°58’ S., long. 100°21' E.], Sumatra). 
Range.—Highlands of western Sumatra. 
Criniger ochraceus ruficrissus BowpLER SHARPE. 
Criniger ruficrissus BowpLeR SHARPE, Proc. Zool. Soc. London, for 1879, 
pt. 2, August 1879, p. 248 (Kina Balu [lat. 6°05’ N., long. 116°30’ E.], 
North Borneo). 
Range.—Highlands of northern Borneo. 
Remarks—Although some authorities prefer to treat ruficrissus 
as a monotypic species, I look upon it as merely a strongly marked 
geographical representative of ochraceus. It is apparently sympatric 
in northern Borneo with Criniger bres gutturalis (see Finsch, Notes 
from the Leyden Museum, vol. 26, 1905, p. 106). 
CRINIGER BRES (Lesson), 1832 
Criniger bres tephrogenys (JARDINE AND SELBY). 
Trichophorus tephrogenys JARDINE AND SELBY, Illustrations of Ornithology, 
ser. I, vol. 3, pt. 9, February 1833, pl. 127 and text (“. . . though we are 
uncertain of its locality, we suspect it to be Indian”; type locality corrected 
to Malacca, by Hartert, Nov. Zool., vol. 9, 1902, p. 558). 
Range.—Southern Tenasserim (one specimen from the Mergui 
District in Liverpool, ex Coll. Tristram) ; peninsular Thailand south- 
ward from the Isthmus of Kra; Malaya; lowlands of eastern Sumatra. 
Remarks.—Criniger bres tephrogenys is apparently sympatric in 
southern Tenasserim and peninsular Thailand with Criniger och- 
raceus sordidus, and in Malaya with Criniger ochraceus sacculatus. 
Criniger bres gutturalis (BONAPARTE). 
Tlrichophorus\. gutturalis “Mull. Mus. Lugd.” Bonaparte, Consp. Gen. Av., 
vol. 1, 1850 or 1851, p. 262 (Borneo type specimen from Banjermasin 
[lat. 3°20’ S., long. 114°35' E.], fide Finsch, Notes from the Leyden Musuem, 
vol. 26, 1905, p. 105). 
Range—Borneo. 
Remarks.—This form is apparently sympatric in northern Borneo 
with Criniger ochraceus ruficrissus (see Finsch, loc. cit., p. 106).
