Lat. 2°S. 18th June, 1914. [No. 1997.] 
“Tris deep yellow, bill black, whitish at the base of the 
lower mandible, feet coppery green.” 
A young bird entirely green above and below with practi- 
cally no trace of the lilac and vermilion of the head and gorget. 
At over 12,000 feet on the final cone of Korinchi Peak, 
on absolutely bare volcanic scoriae, at some considerable 
distance from vegetation of any kind we found the recognis- 
able remains of a bird of this species. It had evidently been 
blown or wandered out of the forest and either died of starva- 
tion or been suffocated by the sulphurous fumes. 
The species was not met with by us at any of our camps 
on the southern slope of the mountain and almost certainly 
does not occur in the Korinchi forests, but has been obtained 
by several collectors in the Padang Highlands to the north- 
ward.

“Tris dark, bill pinkish horn, feet purplish brown.” 
Fairly common on the sea shore. Its flight is very direct 
and rapid and its note, as already observed by Everett (Nov. 
Zool. ill, p. 595, 1896) is very different from other members 
of the genus, being a shrill squeak.

“Tris dark hazel, bill horn, feet powdery pinky brown.” 
By no means common in the Korinchi Valley, where it 
was the only Goatsucker seen or heard.
