The Chinese Red-vented Bulbul is common throughout the more hilly 
and richly wooded portions of Tenasserim north of 13° N. lat. Capt. 
Bingham found it abundant in the Thoungyeen valley, and Capt, Wardlaw 
Ramsay procured it in Karennee at from 1000 to 2000 feet elevation. 
It extends into China, and is found over the whole southern portion of 
that country. 
This species and the next do not appear to differ in habits from P. bur- 
mannicus.
