THE BIRDS OF SOUTH-WEST AND PENINSULAR SIAM. 275 



Very conimon in the scrubby country round Koli Lak, much 

 rarer further south : the original types from Tanjong Patani being 

 ahnost outside the normal range of the race. 



< This race is just separable from the Upper Burmese bird 

 P. h. hlanfordi. Baker (in M., p. 197) does not admit this; but he 

 had probably not seen satisfactory typical material of P. b. rohinsoni, 

 which comes from the extreme south of Peninsular Siam.
