Tenasserim provinces. 



The Himalayan G. leucolophus, the range of which extends to Arakan, 

 the Tenasserim G. helangeri y the G. diardi, Lesson, = G. leucogaster, Walden, 

 of Siam and Cochin-China, and the G. bicolor, Lesson, of Sumatra, are 

 mutually representative races or con species, but which do not appear to grade 

 into one another. Each in its own range abounds, and from its noisiness is 

 the most prominently conspicuous bird in the forest.
