THE BIRDS OF SOUTH-WEST AND PENINSULAR SIAM. 21 



Total length 565 ; wing 236 ; tail 228 ; tarsus 68 ; bill from 

 gape 33 mm. 



We think that there can be but little doubt that this 

 pheasant is referable to the above race, which has an extensive range 

 down the hill-ranges between Burma and Siam. Our specimen 

 agrees closely with those described and identified by Ogilvie Grant 

 as G. andersoni, which subsequently formed part of the material on 

 which the present race was founded by Oates. Gyldenstolpe obtained 

 no females, while owing to dry weather we were unable to obtain a 

 series, as the birds were so wild as to be unapproachable. A scapular 

 feather picked up in the track was pare white, with very narrow 

 lineated black bars parallel to the edge of the feather. 



The undersurface of our bird is brownish black, with a broad 

 white shaft-stripe and a broad subterminal V-shaped white bar on 

 each feather: there is no trace of rufous on the mantle which, with 

 the nape, has a narrow white shaft and a broader white V-shaped 

 band on each feather, edged posteriorly with blackish.
