Anthipes malayana, Sharpe, anteti, p. 247. 



" No. 94. c? ad. Gunong Batu Putch (4300 feet). 



" Irides dark brown ; legs and feet white ; bill nearly black. 



Lives apparently on the ground." 



A young bird, mottled all over after the manner of Flycatchers, is 

 sent by Mr. Wray from the same locality. " No. 98. Irides deep 

 brown; legs and feet pale flesh-colour. Hops about among the 

 undergrowth, searching for insects, making a nearly continual chirp- 

 ing." Although the Hume Collection does not contain any young 

 Anthipes for comparison, I think that the present specimen must 

 belong to a species of that subgenus. 



NiLTAVA GRANDIS, HodgS. 



Niltava grandis, Sharpe, P. Z. S. 1886, p. 251. 



" No. 11. $ ad. Batang Padang Mountains, Perak." 



Niltava leucoprocta (Tweedd.). 



Niltava leucoprocta, Gates, B. Brit. Burm. i. p. 298. 



"No. 103. c? ad. Gunong Batu Putch (3400 feet). 



" Irides light brown ; bill black ; legs and feet light grey, soles of 

 /eet flesh-colour." 



I have compared the adult male now sent with others from Tenas- 

 serim, and find it to be identical. The extension of the range of the 

 species is interesting. 



Fam. Pycnonotid^. 



Criniger gutturalis (Bp.). 



Criniyer gutturalis, Gates, t. c. p. 185 ; Hume, Str. F. 1879, p. 61. 



"No. 104, 105. 6 ad. Gunong Batu Putch (3400 feet). 



" Irides red-brown. A noisy harsh-voiced bird ; flies in small 

 parties, rather high up in the trees." 



Mr. Wray sends one Criniger (no. 105), which, after much hesi- 

 tation and careful comparison with the series of skins in the Hume 

 Collection, I have decided to be only the young of G. gutturalis. 

 Its much lighter bill and rufous wings and tail, at first sight, make 

 it look very different.
