black except on the distal portion of the upper surface of 
the tail. A few of the wing coverts and scapulars are

This is the first specimen found in Sumatra. The bird 
was shot in the swampy jungle while it was sitting on a 
very high tree, uttering incessently its call note, which 
consisted of the sound é, repeated several times, followed 
by a whizzing rrrrr. The specimen shot was the only one 
met, so it seems to be very rare.
