The Minangkabau name ungge udang means “ shrimp 
bird.” 
According to the natives the bird feeds also on shrimps 
from the brooks. In confinement it takes shrimps as well 
as fish. Of several birds inspected the stomach contained 
insects, as caterpillars, grass-hoppers, etc. 
The four nestlings Nos. 4066, 4101, 4109, 4123 were 
taken from a nest which was found on a steep hillside, in 
the fork of a young tree, two metres above the ground. 
The birds were killed at intervals of several days, to obtain 
different stages of development. 
Lives in pairs in secondary and in old forest. 
The nestlings are greenish grey on the back, their wings 
are dull olive brown, and a few of the secondaries have pale 
green tips but are without black markings ; breasts and 
abdomens are greyish white sometimes slightly tinged with 
green.
