“Adult: Iris pale greenish, yellow or white, bill blackish, 
pinkish beneath, feet brownish pink. 
Immature; bill corneous, yellow beneath, feet purplish 
brown.” 
Very common amongst the growing rice, reeds and river 
side vegetation, throughout the Korinchi Valley and also in 
the swamp near Sungei Kumbang, uttering a low but pleasant 
twittering note. 
The series collected, which are in fairly fresh plumage, 
are very uniform, the only variations being in the amount of 
black edging to the feathers of the sides of the chest and in 
the white stripe from over the eye to the lores, which in many 
specimens is practically obsolete. 
Suya waterstvadti, Hartert, Nov. Zool. ix, p. 568 (1902), 
is the nearest ally to this species, but differs in being a slightly 
smaller and much darker coloured bird, the black edgings to 
the feathers of the breast being much mote strongly developed. 
The white superciliary stripe, which does not seem to have 
been present in the original type of S. waterstvadiz, is quite 
as pronounced in the majority of the large series in the F.M.S. 
Museums as it is in the present species.
