94 ON A COLLECTION OF BIRDS FROM N. E. SUMATRA. 



TROGONIDAE.

de Beaufort and de Bussy, p. 252.

It may here be noted that Messrs. de Beaufort and de 

 Bussy. (loc. (-it. ) record Pyrotrogon orrophaeus (Cab. and 

 Heine) from Sennah in the Deli District. The former 

 author also records Pyrotrogon vidua, hitherto only known 

 from Borneo, also from the Deli District (Ornith. Monatsb. 

 16, 1908. p. 190). As these birds are merely representative 

 forms of one species it is extremely improbable that they will 

 both be found to occur in the same area though without see- 

 ing the latter specimen also it is impossible to say definitely 

 that P. vidua does not occur in Sumatra. 



42. Rhopodytes tristis elongatus(S. Muell.). Antea. p. 93. 



de Beaufort and de Bussy, p. 254.

As might be expected the series from X. E. Sumatra 

 shows a distinct approach to that inhabiting the Malay Penin- 

 sula, Tenasserim and Siam which of late years has usually 

 been known as Pit. I. hainanus, Hartert (Nov. Zool, XVII, 

 p. 218 (1910), a name which is not, strictly speaking, tenable.
