96 MESSRS. ROBINSON AND KLOSS ON 



A strictly forest eagle, widely distributed but hard to procure. 

 Swann ( Synopt. List Accipitres, Part ii, 1919, p. 69) has revived 

 Hodgson's name of pern iger for the continental race. At the moment 

 we have no Siamese or Malayan specimens available, but a male 

 from Java, the type locality of /. malayensls, has the wing over 22 

 inches, which is more than Swann gives for perniger. The con- 

 tinental subspecies is, therefore, of rather dubious validity.
