The advent of a fully adult specimen shows that the 

 Sumatran form is not identical with the Malayan but is con- 

 siderably darker especially on the head and throat which are 

 almost black. The above adult male agrees closely with 

 Bornean adults but we have not yet been able to compare it 

 with typical Javan birds to which the name properly applies. 

 For Bornean birds, if distinct, there are other names available.
