96 LIST OF BIRDS OF BORNEO. 
A certain proportion of these seemingly peculiar species 
will, in all probability, be found to exist elsewhere in Sumatra, 
the Malay Peninsula, &c., as the birds of these latter districts 
become better known. On the other hand, it may be antici- 
pated with confidence that further exploration of the high- 
lands of Borneo and Palawan will add many more really 
peculiar species, and perhaps some genera, to the foregoing 
list. 
In concluding this introductory note, | have to express my 
great obligation to Mr. R. B. SHARPE for much kindly assist- 
ance in the identification of many of the species herein cata- 
logued, and also for permission to include the titles of several 
which will be described as new to science in his papers on 
Mr. WHITEHEAD’S collections now in process of publication 
in the “Ibis.” To the latter gentleman 1 am also immen 
indebted, he having freely placed at my disposal, for exami- 
nation, his entire collection from Borneo and Palawan.
