Arakan, Shan hills, Tenasserim, Malacca, Java. The largest of Asiatic 

 "Woodpeckers. 



[Arakan and Pegu hills (0.); Tonghoo (Z.). Examples from Cochin- 

 china in no way differ. According to Sundevall (Consp. Ay. Picinarum, 

 p. 10, no. 23), Temminck's title has priority, and he quotes the year 

 1825 as the date of publication. But there must be some mistake, for 

 Sundevall refers to the 65th Livraison of the Recueil, whereas P. pulveru- 

 lentus was described and figured in the 66th. Anyhow, Crotch (Ibis, 1868, 

 p. 500) gives 1826 as the year in which both these Livraisons were published. 

 Elsewhere (Ibis, 1871, p. 164, note) reasons are stated why, while the exact 

 date of Yalenciennes' title remains undetermined, preference should be given 

 to the one bestowed by Temminck.]
