2G GYLDENSTOLPE, BIRDS COLLECTED BY THE SWEDISH ZOOLOGICAL EXPEDITION TO SIAM. 



branches in a brushjungle close to the village. They were rather shy but I suc- 

 ceeded in getting one specimen which probably was the male. That could not, I 

 am sorry to say, been made out properly, becanse the genital organs were comple- 

 tely destroyed by the shot, but I believe it is a male, becaiise I remember that the 

 colours of the other specimen were not so plain and bright as in the specimen 

 obtained. 



23. Pycnonotus atricapillus Wald. — In the collection there is only a male 

 specimen of this Bulbul shot near Pak Pan on tlie 18th of February. I then observ- 

 ed a small flock of this species up in a bamboo near a small nearly dry creek 

 running throngh the dry forest. 



Length=190 mm. Wing =85 mm. 



Tail = 76 » Culmen = 13 » 



24. Pycnonotus germaini Oust. — I can only give a single record about this 

 bird, becanse I only observed it with any certainty near a banana plantation at 

 Sakerat. 



There I noticed a small flock of about a dozen individuals and I succeeded 

 in shooting two of them. That occurred on the 5tli of January and when making 

 an excursion to the same place the following day 1 again observed a flock of 

 which I now shot a male specimen.

25. Pycnonotus finlaysoni Strickl. — Finlayson's Stripe-throated Bulbul was 

 shot or observed on different occasions in the northern parts of the country, but 

 only in or in the neighbourhood of the great evergreen primeval forests. Then it 

 was not uncommon in the old clearings or in secondary jungles round Bång Hue 

 Hom, from which place my specimens come.
