150 NILS GYLDENSTOLPE, ZOOLOGICAL RESULTS OF THE SWEDISH ZOOLOGICAL EXPEDITIONS TO SIAM. 
In some parts of the country it was very shy, in other it was quite tame. Generally 
seen in pairs or small flocks but sometimes they could be seen in great numbers feeding 
on the rice-fields. 
This species inhabits Assam, Manipur, Burma, Yunnan, Siam, Cochin China, the 
Malay Peninsula and Sumatra.

The Burmese Red Turtle-Dove was very common indeed in the Siamese Malaya, 
where it occurred in large flocks in company with the Burmese Spotted Dove (Strepto- 
pela suratensis tigrina Tumm.). I never found it in dense forests but in every thin 
tree- or bamboo-jungle it was very common though always at the vicinity of cultivated 
land. 
In the northern parts of the country I also observed them but here they were less 
common though occurring in the same kind of country as in the southern Districts. 
332. Geopelia striata. Linn. — The Barred Ground-Dove. 
Geopelia striata: Williamson I p. 47; Miiller p. 431; Grant p. 121. 
@ Bangkok '/2 1914. W = 94 mm.; T = 101 mm.; C = 18 mm. 
The Barred Ground-Dove seems to be very rare in Siam, where it is also very 
locally distributed. 
During my former Expedition I never met with a single specimen, but during my 
last journey I observed a few birds in a large fig-tree in one of the gardens in Bangkok. 
Neither in Northern Siam nor in the Siamese Malaya did I meet with this tiny little bird 
during my travellings though I kept a careful lookout for it. In size as well as in the colour 
of its plumage it is absolutely identical with specimens from Java. 
It is a common cage-bird among the natives in Bangkok.
